Super Flower Blood Moon. Expialidocious. These aren’t sharp, which I attribute to a sleepy, blurry-eyed camera operator, but at least they capture the moment. The moon was in nearly full eclipse when it set behind Wheeler Crest.

@Miraz Yeah, that reversal is disorienting. I remember being very puzzled about shadows moving the wrong way, though I don't remember the specifics at the moment. I told this to a bunch of scientists when I got back and they all went, "Hunh!". Spherical geometry is tricky.

@cliffordbeshers They capture it perfectly. Sharpness can be so overrated, right? I'll take mood over sharpness every day.

@AlanGMarz The feeling I actually had was frustration at not being able to rewind and go again. I didn't hear about this event until yesterday and didn't prepare much. And that moonset came faster than I expected. A little child in me wailed "Do it again!" Normally, the promise of a repeat the following month is enough. This eclipse, in the place, hitting the ridge at the peak of eclipse...I was too slow to realize how unique it was.

@Miraz Haha, until you mentioned it I didn't notice theirs was upside-down! πŸ˜‚ It makes sense but it somehow didn't occur to me. Whichever way up, though, I appreciate all the pictures @cliffordbeshers
