A week ago, many parts of the world had an
astronomical trifecta -- the sun, moon and our green planet were aligned on the
same axis for the year's first -- and only -- total lunar
eclipse, also referred to as the "super wolf blood
moon."
The bloody colour was clearly spectacular at night,
but given the film cameras I use, I decided to capture a few moments from the “morning
after”.
Here is the moon descending behind the mountain
range at sunrise:
And here it is just when it touched the top of the
Butte:
I took this shot from my street to show the size scale
of the city lights compared to the moon.
