Description

The weather forecast wasn‘t very promising. In addition, with the moon very low at the sky, imaging was also a challenge, as my east and south view is heavily obstructed by trees.

I was able to shot one decent, cloud free image of the eclipse round about 25 minutes after its maximum and right before the moon disappeared behind trees. When he came back into view, the sky was almost covered by clouds. I went on taking images as long as the moon was visible until it finally vanished behind clouds.

All images were shot with a Canon EOS 700D and a Canon EF 70-200 L USM f4.0 lens at 200mm/f4.0 and ISO100 (with exception to the first image shot with ISO800 at f/5.6). Exposure times ranged from 2s to 1/4s.

The first image in this collection was shot at 21:56 UT, the last one at 22:34 UT.
