Another shot of part of the windmill collection on the Schwartz Farm east of Hannibal,MO. Couldn't figure out how to "eclipse" that cell tower out of the background,unfortunately though...LOL
Have a great windmill Wednesday all,a hot and steamy 88 degrees in NW Illinois today!
Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) This is a mallard drake in eclipse plumage. In spring ducks require their colourful plumage to attract a mate during the breeding season. After the breeding season the male begins to moult, replacing the old worn out feathers with new ones. Ducks are peculiar in that they will moult all their flight feathers at once, and so for a month are unable to fly and are very vulnerable to predators. Now here comes the clever bit. The males will start their moult with all their bright body feathers. These are replaced by duller brown ones, much like the females. This eclipse plumage will then be worn for a few weeks or months depending on the species of duck, before another second moult occurs when the male will once again grow back his full colours. This moult is less ‘severe’ than the first and the males are still able to fly.
During the summer months it often seems like the males have all disappeared. In fact they are just camouflaging themselves and upon closer examination you will see them amongst the females where they have always been. Interestingly, the females will only need to moult once and will do this after all her young have successfully fledged and are fending for themselves. With Mallard, the difference between the male and female when the male is in eclipse plumage is that he has a uniform yellow bill (compared to her orange bill with black markings) and a breast tinged rufous and less well marked.
Lunar Eclipse 07.09.2025
Back in March I photographed the Lunar Eclipse from my bedroom window. Yesterday there was another one, and I decided to do something different. We took a long hike along the northern coast of Peniche, reaching the Baleal Island (a former island turned peninsula) just at the time the sun was setting. Facing north and surrounded by the ocean, we watched the sunset on our left and some minutes later we saw the eclipsed moon rise on our right. We resumed our walk with the moon in front of us and watched it fully emerge from the Earth’s shadow. It was a spectacular sight and a very special moment.
I had decided I was not going to carry the tripod and telelens with me because I wanted to enjoy the hike and the moment without carrying a lot of weight and without getting distracted setting up things. I still took the camera though, and before we resumed the walk, I placed it on some rocks to get some quick shots. I didn’t expect much, but ended up liking this one quite a bit.
Tonight's full eclipse was pretty spectacular. A Red moon as the it rose but laterly a more normal colour. I was amazed that the clouds cleared for much of the eclipse.
I came across this website which explained the genesis of the term "Blood Moon" earthsky.org/human-world/what-is-a-blood-moon-lunar-eclip...
Notice how the moon in the northern hemisphere looks "upside down" in comparison to here in the southern hemisphere!
aufnahme direkt nach der totalität, deren zeitfenster gewitterbedingt nur drei Minuten betragen hatte (siehe anderes bild). aber gleich nach 23.15 Uhr (ende der totalität) waren urplötzlich alle wolken verschwunden.
shot after the total eclipse. unfortunately, the time frame for the blood moon was just three minutes due to thunderstorm (see other pic) but just after 11.15 p.m. (end of totality) the clouds disappeared entirely.

A male Mallard in partial eclipse, his head looks to be molting but he still has his curlies; Stow Lake, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco.
This is an image of the lunar eclipse .. put together with a photo of a flock of Western jackdaw .. I think it is safe to say that the end result is visually dark ..
Adult Wood ducks (Aix sponsa). The male in whats termed, eclipse plumage,
In eclipse plumage (late summer), males lose their pale sides and bold stripes, but retain their bright eye and bill. Juveniles are very similar to females.

🌒ECLIPSE WITCH🌘
(NEW VIDEO about the Dark Night of The Soul) Some may go through intense darkness in their life more than once, and this can be something like a “turning point” in their life. When one go through the “Dark Night of Soul” the world can feel like it’s all crashing down and you have NO idea what the hell is happening! You feel lost, out of touch, unfamiliar...
Some people say that spirituality is just being light and or positive all the time without seeing the darkness. But what about our repressed issues? Pain? Trauma? We have to be aware of them in order to move on and live a better life.
So I just created an in depth video all about it and some tips for you as well on my youtube!

As I look forward to the solar eclipse in August, I revisited some of my unpublished pictures from the partial solar eclipse from October 23, 2014.
Composite of the lunar eclipse of January 2019. Nikon D7200 with 70 to 300 lens. Notice the grayish white moon before the eclipse started changing to the Blood Moon, then to a yellow at the end of the eclipse. Quite a Heavenly show that night!
Here is a 3 part lunar eclipse compilation from early Friday, March 14th 2025 from Toledo, OH. Going left to right, the first image is from 2:09am, which is about 16 minutes until totality began. The second photo was right at 3am on the dot near max totality, and then the last image was back into the partial phase at 4am or 29 minutes after totality ended. The colors were more muted as there were some high transparent clouds that had moved in by that point.
I shot these in my front yard in the Seattle area. We were north of the region of totality but it was still fun to see and to shoot. It was nice to sit on a stool drinking coffee and click off a shot every so often without contending with traffic and crowds. I was using a Lee Eclipse filter.
I picked a few of my shots and compiled them. In my view of it, the sun continued it's rise in the sky throughout the eclipse process with the smallest sliver taken at about 10:20 AM. It appeared that the moon made an arch over the sun. Thus the location of the "bite" seemed to twist around. Very interesting to see.
Well, here's my feeble attempt at the Lunar Eclipse tonight.....Cold, Windy & I had to shoot in between breaks in the clouds!! I cranked the ISO up to 800 on this shot with no noise reduction.
My first (and probably last) attempt at photographing the eclipse. Asheville was at 85% totality. Kudos to those who do this type of photography on a regular basis. A lot of work!

Partial lunar eclipse, seen from Sapporo in the evening of 4 June 2012.
The exposure was chosen such that the shaded part of the lunar disk can still be seen. The bright part is therefore heavily overexposed.
The next chance to observe a lunar eclipse (even a total one) will be on 13/14 March 2025. It will be completely visible over the Americas, seen rising over northeast Asia and Australia, and setting over Europe and Africa (www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/lunar/2025-march-14).
Camera: Canon PowerShot G12.
