I like how you included more of the night sky and some stars. It gives you a better picture of what it looked like rather than boxing the moon in like many detail photos I see.

Thank you so much, Denise! I’m glad you like the stars. I worried that some might see them as dirt spots or something other than stars. 😀

Wow, beautiful, Deborah! Was it (it looks like) a blood moon?Where I live now, I can’t see the moon rising, only very late when it’s above us. Great you took the opportunity! Jesh

Thank you, Jesh! Yes, it was Blood Moon Total Lunar Eclipse. They never get old. 😀
I too have to wait for the moon to crest the mountains about 35-40minutes after it rises.

Top notch portrait of the moon. The gear used is a very capable set of Nikon, a favourite, but that alone wouldn’t lead to a beauty necessarily.

I didn’t even know about this but as the skies were completely cloudy (and even provided a bit of rain) last night here in Illinois, I guess it didn’t matter. Thanks for sharing this glorious shot of it so I didn’t feel as though I missed something. 🙂 ❤

Thank you so much, Janet! I’m not positive but where you are now you would have only seen a partial eclipse if you were able to see it with a clear sky.
There’s a partial Lunar Eclipse on my son’s birthday in November I’m hoping we can see. I’ll figure that out as we get closer to the date.

Yes, it would have been a partial lunar eclipse in that area. Statistically, since the year 2000, the 26th of May has been cloudy 72% of the time in that area. 😮
