This is a composite of several moon shots taken last night at 10-15 minute intervals during the eclipse, then superimposed on a photo of Albuquerque's city lights. This is a first attempt at something like this. Hope to do better with the next eclipse in October.

Nikon D300
Sigma 150-500 @ 500mm
Different ISOs and exposures. Changed frequently throughout the night as the brightness of the moon changed.


Your post is an excellent set of the eclipse.

Thanks for the beautiful image. We, in the SE, missed it because of the clouds and rain.

For me,this is fantastic work. How do you go about creating this effect? Like HDR ... combine different shots? Or multiple exposures on one frame?

Thanks, everyone, for your kind comments. Yes, we were blessed with clear skies and no wind for a change! One day earlier, or later, and we would have been out of luck.

Neither one of those, actually. I followed the instructions on the following web site. Glad to share it with you and hope it helps you as much as it did me. Mine isn't as good as his; but like I said, hope to do better next time.
