Lunar Eclipse 16th May 2022

Insomnia at 3.30 this morning, so I thought I may as well get up. I'm glad I did. The skies were marvellous here in Norfolk, as I watched the setting eclipsed moon as the sun rose.

Canon 700d. Canon EF 75-300mm zoom.

Lovely shots @lukebl, glad someone got to see it 👍

I got to see firstish contact,
then I went back to bed for a while and of course woke up after thing had been and gone, typical.

It would not have all been visible due to the tree lines near me, but, sleepy head will never know.

Excellent result Luke !

It rained pretty much all night here, very soggy this morning.

I like the images with the clouds!

Having to work this morning I only stayed out an hour.

@lukebl nice shots. Good to see you had some half decent skys over there.  Not a sniff over here : as John Lennon said :  "above us only clouds"

Thanks folks.

I was skulking around my neighbour's orchard at 4am to get these pics. I think I got away with it!

Great shots, Luke. I know it was a challenge to see in the U.K. I got to see the whole thing from about 10:30 to 3 a.m. EDT over here in the states. I will post my pics  

Clear skies, Reggie

superb photos Luke. It was always going to be tricky to see here in the U.K, well done for making the most of your opportunity.
