I caught the “Beaver Moon” early this morning..the very last part of the 6 HOUR lunar eclipse experience. I know there will be some who will catch it all..the moon shots that show the entire eclipse. Good on you if you stayed up all night..but yeah..for me..it was just get some of it and leave the rest. The reason? For photography it’s good to look at your subjects 2 ways..your subject is interesting, right? Then don’t light all of it..either artificially or the way mother nature lights the subject. The other way to look at it is you..the photographer..leaving a little for next time..especially if you photograph it a lot. You’ll need to say goodbye to sleep I’m afraid. These lunar eclipses, northern lights, comets..all the cool things in outer space seem to want to appear when it’s the middle of the night. I’m good with that because you have to focus on the task..you know you can get a good picture if you’d just stay up…LOL
