Was tipped off that there was a stunning field of poppies nearby (thanks Rich) so went out to take a look - it was all so spectacular, so step back and enjoy this first SOOC shot!
This really is what it looked like! But BIGGER!

And now a bunch of red tulips, which are my favourites though for choice I'd have them a shade deeper than these. As Valentine's Day approaches, the red ones vanish, held back so they can be put into extra-large bouquets...
The red sofa added some nice color to this shot...but leather- covered furniture can be so cold, without some warm bodies to heat it up! ;-)

This is actually an old one. I made this image as a collaboration between me and the very talented and ever lovely mr. Moog. Unfortunately he had to back out because of his busy schedule, and I forgot about it. I finally dug it up again so here it is.

The moon passed through Earth's shadow on Oct. 8, 2014, marking a rare total lunar eclipse, the second of 2014, in a stunning blood moon.
I was so lucky; John and I were sitting in our deck chairs outside the RV at the Bargara CV park, watching the whole magical event unfold. This was the only good shot. I had to use 2 hd filters and tweak up the camera settings too. My tri-pod is a bit light and there was a fair stiff breeze blowing making the camera move with the heavy 300mm lens on board - tight cropping
The first Blood Moon eclipse in a series of four happened on the night of April 14-15 2014. The next happened on the night of October 7-8 22014, last night here in Australia. At that October Blood Moon, there was a rare total lunar eclipse. Some astronomy circles had not heard the term Blood Moon used in quite this way before this year, but now the term has become widespread with people and in the media. The origin of the term is religious, at least according to Christian pastor John Hagee, who wrote a 2013 book about Blood Moons. Meanwhile, both astronomers and some proponents of Christian prophesy are talking about the ongoing lunar tetrad – the series of four total lunar eclipses – which began with the last lunar eclipse on the night of April 14-15 2014.
A tetrad is four successive total lunar eclipses, with no partial lunar eclipses in between, each of which is separated from the other by six lunar months (six full moons).
Two Christian pastors, Mark Blitz and John Hagee, use the term Blood Moon to apply to the full moons of the ongoing tetrad.
Mark Blitz and John Hagee speak of a lunar tetrad as representing a fulfilment of Biblical prophecy. After all, the moon is supposed to turn blood red before the end times, isn’t it? As described in Joel 2:31 (Common English Bible):
The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood before the great and dreadful day of the LORD comes.
That description, by the way, describes both a total solar eclipse and total lunar eclipse. Sun turned to darkness = moon directly between the Earth and sun in a total solar eclipse. Moon turned to blood = Earth directly between the sun and moon, Earth’s shadow falling on the moon in a total lunar eclipse.
Dates of Biblical prophecy Blood Moons in 2014 and 2015 - These are the dates for the ongoing tetrad – four successive total lunar eclipses – in these years.
2014:
Total lunar eclipse: April 14-15
Total lunar eclipse: October 7-8
2015:
Total lunar eclipse: April 4
Total lunar eclipse: September 28
There are a total of 8 tetrads in the 21st century (2001 – 2100). But proponents of this Biblical prophecy regard the ongoing tetrad as especially significant because it coincides with two important Jewish holidays: Passover and Tabernacles.
The April 2014 and April 2015 total lunar eclipses align with the feast of Passover. The October 2014 and September 2015 total lunar eclipses align with the feast of Tabernacles.
The Jewish calendar is a lunar calendar. In any year, it’s inevitable that a full moon should fall on or near the feasts of Passover (15 Nissan) and Tabernacles (15 Tishri). Nissan and Tishri are the first and seventh months of the Jewish calendar, respectively.
It is somewhat ironic that three of these four lunar eclipses are not visible – even in part – from Israel. The only eclipse that can be seen at all from Israel is the tail end of the September 28, 2015 eclipse, which may be observable for a short while before sunrise.
The full moon nearly always appears coppery red during a total lunar eclipse. That’s because the dispersed light from all the Earth’s sunrises and sunsets falls on the face of the moon at mid-eclipse. Thus the term blood moon can be and probably is applied to any and all total lunar eclipses. The use of the term Blood Moon to describe a lunar tetrad is of recent origin and has become a very popular use of the term.
