The fog, the barely visible solar eclipse and the magic of autumn inspired me to this picture. A glass of Federweisser is still missing.
A total lunar eclipse occurred on 21 January 2019 UTC. For observers in the Americas, the eclipse took place between the evening of Sunday, 20 January and the early morning hours of Monday, 21 January. For observers in Europe and Africa, the eclipse occurred during the morning of 21 January. The Moon was near its perigee on 21 January and as such can be described as a "supermoon".

The awesome, and amazing (but sometimes annoying) Trouble Dethly asked me to do 'Through the Lens' this month for his magazine, Eclipse. This is just one of the shots that I did - but if you want to see the rest as well as get a list of credits for the items that I used, then check out his magazine here --> issuu.com/eclipsemagazinesl/docs/eclipse_magazine_march_2018
The whole magazine is pretty awesome c:
It was actually pretty cool with periods of clouds passing by during the eclipse today just north of Baltimore City. Here it was getting close to 70% coverage when clouds started to pass by ... making the sun and moon looking like friction was causing the moon to catch fire and smoke up the scene :)
Around this time you could also start to sense the reduction in light, and the blue color in the sky and clouds made them all appear like you were looking through a CPL filter.
Waiting for totality when I looked down and saw this little guy. Crazy eclipse sky made a nice background.

Eurasian Wigeon (Mareca penelope) I think this is a male in eclipse because although it looks like a female, it still has the white wing flash. This one is hanging out with the mallards at my local reservoir and has been around for a couple of weeks now, obviously unable to fly away.
Eclipse plumage is temporary or transition plumage. After breeding, ducks moult replacing their old, worn-out feathers with new ones.
Ducks are peculiar in that they moult all their flight feathers at once. For about a month, they can't fly and are very vulnerable to predators.
To provide some protection, particularly for the brightly-coloured males, the moult starts with their bright body feathers. These are replaced by dowdy brown ones, making them look much like females.
This eclipse plumage is why in mid-summer, it seems as though all the drakes have gone.

I used my older camera body as I didn't want to risk any damage.

Of all the days to get cloud cover in the Land of Enchantment!
As good as it got in my part of Albuquerque. Sod's law!
Guess I'll have to wait next eclipse in October 2023 or April 8, 2024.
A male wood duck in eclipse plumage showed up at the park and was hanging around with a group of Mallards for a few days....

So, I went out this morning to watch the sunrise but was surprised to see a partial solar eclipse! I love a good surprise!

... Super Blood Wolf Moon - During a total lunar eclipse, Earth completely blocks direct sunlight from reaching the Moon. The only light reflected from the lunar surface has been refracted by Earth's atmosphere. This light appears reddish for the same reason that a sunset or sunrise does: the Rayleigh scattering of bluer light. Due to this reddish color, a totally eclipsed Moon is sometimes called a blood moon.
