Are you ready to shoot the first of 4 lunar eclipses of 2014???

This is the first of four consecutive total lunar eclipses this year, a series called a tetrad.

Info: http://thespacereporter.com/2014/04/spectacular-blood-moon-lunar-eclipse-set-for-april-15/

Specifics / Time Chart: http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/OH/OHfigures/OH2014-Fig01.pdf

If you haven't had luck taking the moon shot, here is one link (of many available) that is fairly informative: http://www.digital-photo-secrets.com/tip/779/how-to-take-stunning-pictures-of-the-moon/

May the night be clear, the winds be calm and the surrounding light sources be dark... Good Luck !!!

Correction: NOT this year, but over the next two years. Each of the four eclipses is six months after the previous one and before the next one. Three periods of 6 months with four eclipses, hence the name tetrad.

April 14/15 and Oct 8, 2014.
April 4 and Sep 28, 2015.
