supermoon/bluemoon eclipse

Last edited Thu Feb 1, 2018, 12:40 PM - Edit history (1)

got up at 4am to drive out to where i planned to shoot the eclipse
got there about 5:15 and it was clear.
5:40 eclipse begins and clouds roll in.
then fog.

then as the morning progressed the lens on one of my cameras started to get dew covered.

still i managed to get some good shots

The first pic is what I witnessed this morning starting around 3:30 a.m. here in California.

The detail, the clarity, everything.

If you hadn't told us, I would not have guessed you'd run into such weather.

Thanks for sharing.

When I took a picture during partial with my tablet it was a white dot like a snowflake. When it was completely covered and appeared rust color I couldn't get anything at all on my screen...damn IT!
