This ominous Picture of the Week shows our very own Moon undergoing a total lunar eclipse. The image was taken on the night of May 15 2022 from ESO’s Paranal Observatory in Chile. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth is positioned directly between the Sun and the Moon, blocking some of the Sun’s light. This casts a shadow across the Moon’s surface.
The red colour is caused by the Sun’s rays interacting with the Earth’s atmosphere. Light from the Sun contains a whole spectrum of colours. Blue light is dispersed by the atmosphere through a process called Rayleigh scattering (which makes the sky blue) while red light can pass through the atmosphere more easily, becoming slightly deflected. This red light reaches the Moon’s surface, giving rise to its dramatic crimson hue.
This photo was taken during the eclipse’s totality, when the Earth is causing the largest blockage of the Sun’s light. It was taken by two ESO colleagues at Paranal Observatory using an amateur telescope nicknamed “UT5” as a nod to its much larger siblings, the four 8-m Unit Telescopes at ESO’s Very Large Telescope. Fun fact: astronomers often take spectra of lunar eclipses to understand the signatures that life can leave on Earth’s atmosphere, which is a very useful reference when searching for similar signatures in exoplanets.

Projected through a pair of binoculars (Nikon Monarch 8x42). The partial eclipse is seen as a pair of crescents.

Was a cloudy evening for the eclipse of the Supermoon in NW Ohio, but this was one of the better shots of the evening. Unfortunately, the Blood moon kept getting obscured by clouds.
Taken at 1:13pm, the 50% maximum coverage we got here. I shot this through a lens from a pair of eclipse glasses on my 300mm lens. I made a lens hood out of black poster board and attached the lens. Small compared to the front of the lens, but when zoomed at 300mm, you aren't seeing through the whole front glass.
Yesterday's practice shot was taken with my dad's old 30 year old 400mm Sigma lens through three sheets of mylar emergency space blanket. It worked, but made the sun blue so I had to fake the color. I found that lens is pretty low contrast so the 100mm extra reach it gave me didn't improve the image even today when I used eclipse glasses on both cameras. I only tried the space blanket because my earlier attempts at using glasses had terrible light leaks and made me think it was too small.
My original plan was to shoot it just using that old lens on a camera I got at the pawn shop for $89 (I wanted the lens it had). But things were seeming safe so I decided to shoot with two cameras.
My expensive camera finally overheated at the end and was causing some very scary errors. I thought I killed it. It was getting close to 100 degrees F in the shade by the time the eclipse was over. I should have known a black camera in the sun would overheat. I often covered the lens when not shooting, but didn't think of the overall temperature. After cooling down, the camera is working again. Don't know why I shot the whole thing, but I couldn't stop. ;-p
Seen from Cheshire Uk...the partial eclipse of the Sun...coincides with both the spring supermoon and the equinox. This lunar eclipse of the sun created, for just a few minutes, an atmosphere far more haunting than any moonlit evening.
Day 69.
Today the 10 second teaser trailer for Eclipse came out today and TOMORROW the 90 second comes out! Needless to say I am jumping for joy! You simply cannot read this book and NOT smile! It is AMAZING!
Also - RIP Corey Haim. This news is heartbreaking.
Partial Solar Eclipse from my garden in Rotherham, UK
It's nice to think of the pair just getting together occasionally to have a chat about us on Planet Earth.
I will try to catch up with you all soon. And will certainly be back fully when I retire (10 months and 3 days, not that I'm counting) and hopefully from time to time before then.
This morning I ran to the roof of my job once I had arrived and snapped photos of the partial eclipse while it peaked through a sliver of clouds. I was grabbing shots in a hurry and had to start work soon after. Later on when I get home I can upload a few more shots.
Re-uploaded a cleaner version. I was unable to do it myself. Big thanks to Towfiq Ahmed for the help.

partial eclipse, corona, partial cloudy sky a bit hazy, slight corrections with "The Gimp", Sigma 150-500mm - not direct light proof
The total eclipse of the sun just passed right over my home here in Southern Illinois. I took this picture at 1.05 p.m. CT, Monday, April 8th, 2024.
This is the second total eclipse I've seen in my area and I don't have the words to describe what they're like. It gets real dark and quiet, and the eclipse really shines up in the sky. It's an awesome experience.
Towards the end of the August 28, 2007 lunar eclipse (Canberra, Evatt).
Probably the sharpest of the shots I took this evening...
Was at the beach in SoCal last week..the marine layer cleared off just in time to attempt a couple images of the (partial) Eclipse on Monday.

4 of four photos.
Since Flickr's Explore page is already full of photos of the recent eclipse, I figured I might as well add mine to the mix... (even though I am too busy at the time to do anything else on Flickr).
Anyways, this is captured in Austin, Texas where a well-timed cold front cleared the skies just for the evening of April 14-15. I didn't stay outside the whole time because it was chilly, and that explains why the photos above aren't oriented the same way. So I did "fake" the path of the moon, but the spacing between the photos is about right for relative time differences, except for the last one (I separated it to show it better).
This was my first lunar eclipse, and staying up till 2:30 am was definitely worth it.
Nikon D5100 with Tamron 70-300 USD; processing in Aperture 3 and Gimp.
Lunar Eclipse on March, 4th. Picture taken with a 8" Meade LX90 and a Canon EOS 400D.
Exposure time: 8 seconds, aperture: f/10, focal length: 2000 mm
As no field flattener was used, and the EOS 400D's crop factor is 1.6, the picture had to be stitched together from 2 photos. I think it's time for a full-format sensor camera ;)
