Blood moon rising

Like many of you I spent several hours yesterday evening enjoying and photographing the lunar eclipse. In our part of the world the eclipse had already begun by the time the moon crested the horizon, but that was a wonderful opportunity for a shot with a bit of light still in the sky and some silhouettes in the foreground. What a beauty! We were so lucky to have a totally clear, cloudless sky, no wind and tolerable temperatures, still above freezing. This is one I'll remember for a very long time.
