Re: PESO: Super Bloody Wolf Moon
There might be a bit of twist from having to adjust the ball head between shots to keep the moon in the frame. Just looking up at the moon while I was waiting for the next shot from the timer, the shadow appeared to start at about 8 o'clock and creep up to where the last of the direct sunlight disappeared at 2 o'clock, but when the shadow started to disappear the first of the direct light appeared about 11 o'clock and the final shadow disappeared from the 5 o'clock position. Looks like the last two in the upper right may be rotated a little. Now that I think about it, the earth's shadow must have been a much larger circle than the moon and the moon passed through the upper half of the shadow. The earth's rotation makes the moon appear to move from east to west, but I think the moon must orbit west to east? The way I did the composite the sequence has the moon moving from lower left to upper right during the eclipse and now that I think about it, the sequence should probably be from right to left to accurately represent the movement of the moon through the earth's shadow. I'll have to think about this some more and maybe work up a more accurate composite. On 1/23/2019 20:43:05, Larry Colen wrote: Has has been said, that's a very nice composite.

Re: PESO: Super Bloody Wolf Moon
Not B&W. The moon turned out naturally monochrome because I didn't catch any of the red in the earth's shadow. Each of the moon images is loaded as a layer in Photoshop. Each layer has a linked Levels adjustment layer, masked so that the Levels adjustment only applies to the moon in that layer. That gives me the visible portion of the moon at approximately the same brightness for each image. It was the best I could do because none moon images has any shadow detail I could bring out.

Re: PESO: Super Bloody Wolf Moon
That's a very nice composite, John! I am going to show it to my daughter tonight, - to reiterate our discussion on how lunar eclipses work. We were lucky to have a clear sky. But the entire event was past her bed time. And we were driving home while she was sleeping in the car. We made sure we got close to home just before 11 pm (CST), and woke her up. So, she saw the totality and then we watched for a bit how the light started showing up on the side, and then she went to bed at home. But she was still quite sleepy, so, going over it again with this nice composite as well as close-up images from Larry would be reinforcing that educational moment. It is rather funny that she said that she liked the solar eclipse much better: It was during the day (didn't need to sleep, and the effect was more drastic). Thank you for sharing this.
