Total Lunar Eclipse 2019

Happy totally lunar day yesterday or should I say the Super blood moon of 2019!


This was my very first time getting the whole total lunar eclipse which was very cool to photograph and see for the first time.

What is a total lunar eclipse? It is when the suns shadow blocks out the moon just like it did in these photographs I took last night for the Total lunar Elcipse.


I started out when it first started till it ended which was cool to photograph the whole Total Lunar Eclipse of 2019.

This photograph was taken at 10:38 pm yesterday night. 1 hour before the totality of the Total Lunar Eclipse of the Blood Super moon.

This photograph of the total Lunar Eclipse which by the way was half way blocked from the sun was taken at 10:58 pm.





This photograph was taken at 11:17 Pm.. The totality started at 11:41 pm yesterday.



Now here comes the photographs of the totally of the Total Lunar Eclipse from yesterday until this morning after midnight.





Totality of the Total Lunar Eclipse started at 11:41 PM!!




I had to use a lot of different shutter speed and high ISOs to get these photographs of the Total Lunar Eclipse last night until this morning.



NOW its a Blood Red Moon ! I took this photograph at 12:49 am this morning.  Wahoo Totality is still coming through till this point and it became dark red due to the particles of the suns rays hitting the moons surface.









Still blood red at this point at 12:55 AM. Wahoo I made it through to this point of the total Lunar Eclipse and hopefully when the next one happens in May 2021 I will photograph the Total Lunar eclipse again!


Hope you all got to see the Total Lunar Eclipse last night until early this morning and maybe even photographed it .

 Welcome back to another adventure in this weeks Step Into Nature on my blog. Let's see what is going on for this post this week on Thursday.  This is a Red Headed Woodpecker, i also photographed at Jordan Lake with the master mind Al D while on a sunrise shot with him. I got several shots of both Female and Male Red Headed woodpeckers on this dead tree along side of the shore of Jordan Lake . We often don't see these  very often in central parts of North Carolina but at the Lakes of Central North Carolina, you can see them and photograph them as well. This is a Carolina Anole, I photographed at the Botanical Gardens with the marvelous walkabout trying to find lots of subjects to photograph there. We photographed many Carolina Anoles, hummingbirds and many other subjects at the Botanical Gardens. Carolina Anolies are very cool to photograph when you find them espicaily at Nc Botanical Gardens in Chapel Hill. This is a baby Cropes Grey Tree Frog which I also photographed at NC B

Step into Nature # 10

 Welcome back to another post on my blog for this weeks Step into Nature. Let's see what adventures of the post we are going to do for this weeks Step into Nature. This a Tri- Colored Heron, Which I photographed at Pickney Wildlife Refuge while I was on vacation way back in Hilton Head. The Tri- Colored Herons a very cool waterfowl to photograph and they have different color variants compared to the Great Blue Herons found in Central North Carolina, where I live. If you have a chance to find TriColor Herons you should photograph them and they are just like the other waterfowl that can be found in central North Carolina . This is a Jellyfish, which I photographed at Myrtle Beach during sunset conditions. The photograph came out really cool. Jelly Fish are very interesting subjects to photograph at local beaches.  I decided to use the jelly fish as my subject for this photograph  during sunset conditions. This was also taken at Myrtle Beach when i was on vacation in 2019. This is an
