Harvest Moon Lunar Eclipse

During the eclipse the coyotes and owls were doing a symphony. Then all went quiet at totality as the Milky Way illuminated overhead while the dark Moon lurked in the shadows.

Hi

I wanted to share my latest work. It's a timelapse of the latest lunar eclipse, 4:30 hours in 18 seconds, and it clearly shows the eclipsed Moon traveling through the sky, with the background stars moving behind it: https://vimeo.com/141240628

Unfortunately, some clouds came into view for a brief period of time but overall one can appreciate the whole eclipse.

This work required quite a lot of planning and effort (documented in the video description), and IMHO it paid out. Hope you like it as much as I do

Clear skies!

Sebastian.

Milky Mouse by Mark Gee, on Flickr

Africa has very little light pollution, and because of this, the night sky is insanely beautiful. But photographing here at night isn’t straight forward, as standing out in the middle of the bush in the dark by yourself with a camera isn’t really advisable…thankfully for me, I have a 4WD vehicle and a couple of Masai Warriors escorting me. These guys are armed and know the bush and the behaviour of the animals better than anyone, so I do feel quite safe out there at night. In the afternoons we usually get a storm, but then it clears up perfectly in the evening and the sky comes alive with millions of shining stars, so we head out into the darkness amongst the wild animals to see what we can find to photograph.

This image is from my first night out photographing. We found this beautiful tree not far from the Mara Bushtops Camp, and when I first took a shot of it against the night sky, the silhouette looks very much like a mouse, so we called it Milky Mouse!
