So yesterday in the early morning hour between 3 nd 4 AM we had a Blood Moon (lunar eclipse) event. As much as I wanted to stay up to watch it and maybe get a new shot, I couldn't being that I'm already sleep deprived. In saying that I knew I already had a decent image of one from the past. This one shot I April 2015 at 4:11 AM. Fujifilm X-E1 with an adapted Nikkor 70-300mm lens. I had bracketed two exposures together to bring out the stars which the moon made easy at this stage of full eclipse. Glad I shot this when I did. Next time I hope to get an 800mm for my high megapixel D850 and get an even better detailed close up image without cropping... better yet a comparable telescope would be nice.
