Taken over a span of about 3 hours with my Nikon D3400. Foreground with a Nikon 17-55mm at 22mm f/4.5 right before the eclipse started, moons with a Nikon 18-300mm maxed out at 300mm f/6.3 and variable exposures, mostly at ISO 200.

I do have an Instagram if you want to see some more random photos

So it's interesting... seems like you may get a more "accurate" (for lack of a better word) view by reversing the images east/west. You have it representing the earth's rotation, with the moon setting in the west. But, the eclipse is happening as the moon moves west to east into the earth's shadow. So if you reversed the flow of the moon images, you'd get a more accurate portrayal of what was going on with the eclipse.

All that aside, that's a great pic. Awesome work.

Whoa, I hope you stopped at the Still Life Cafe on your way in our out? That place was amazing when I lived out that way. Best french food, hands down.

Unfortunately I live a few hours south of Lone Pine, and I had to go to work after, so I couldn't stop anywhere! But I'll try and remember to stop there if I'm ever in the area again

That was a different timeline. We're stuck in this one now, unless you can come up with enough plutonium for the reactor to get the 1.21 gigawatts of power we're gonna need to fix this.

You telling me there weren’t actually like 20 moons all lined up next to each other that night?

Not sure if this is what you're talking about...

I was tracking the moon facing the southwest when the eclipse started, and it continued to move towards the west. So in the picture, the mountains on the left are southwest, and on the right are more cardinal west.

So yes, the moon moves east to west, like you said. But in the context of this picture, east is to our left (out of frame) and west is to our right. I think we are talking about the same thing 🙂

Haha it's hard to put words to what I'm thinking. So as the moon moves from west to east (talking proper motion against the background, not the motion you notice as the Earth rotates), it encounters the circular shadow of the earth. I was thinkin' it'd be interesting to rearrange the pictures to kind of portray the Earth's shadow in the sky, whereas this arrangement kind of shows up more as the shadow moving over the moon. Some other folks have been posting some interesting arrangement of eclipse pictures that got me to thinking is all.

ELI5, Does the curve of the moon line show the curve of the Earth? Or just how the moon revolves around the Earth?

Thanks for sharing. I was looking forward to seeing this but, where I live, it was completely obliterated by the rain and thunderclouds. We got over 3” of rain that night.

Q1: What’s the bright spot above one of the moons? Q2: what’s the faint line in the sky above the moons?
