Night Lunar eclipse

Lunar eclipse · **5 Likes**

I moved to a nice location near my home to catch a bit of the mood during the totality phase of last Monday's lunar eclipse. Finding the correct focus was a problem, but at last I succeeded. Denoising was also difficult. I hope You find this picture acceptable. In the foreground it shows some dark buildings - the so called 'Kreuzkapelle' (Cross Chapel) and a private house nearby.

Regards
Stephan

very picturesque, something christmas, something mystical as in the books of Ernst Theodore Wilhelm Hoffmann

Nice view of the moon in the context of these local buildings.

I think just a little bit longer exposure on the foreground would have been good.... but I'm being picky. It's a great photo with a lot of atmosphere. Two thumbs up!

Take two exposures... one for the foreground and one for the sky and then merge.
