Lunar Eclipse over Bishop
Ξ February 21st, 2008 | → | ∇ Landscape, Winter |
Last night was a lunar eclipse during the full moon and my friend Ryan and I went out to Red Hill to watch the show over Bishop. It’s times like this when I’m constantly reminded of how blessed I am to live in one of the most beautiful places on earth. This little hill is 3 minutes from my house and looks out over town and has become a frequent spot that I love to go to for sunrise or sunset.
Photographing the lunar eclipse was super cool because usually when I photograph the full moon I don’t get any stars because the moon lights up the sky. But during the eclipse the moon more matched the vibrance of the starts so I was able to capture them together. Cool!
Hope you’re well.

Thanks for sharing those Shawn….they are absolutely beautiful! Since we had clouds here in Colorado that evening, I didn’t get a chance to try! Beautiful Work as always!

Hey Shawn!
I hope things are well!
Sweet pictures. I’m always checking in from time to time to see how you are doing. Pretty well from what I can see.
I have fond memories of the time I visited with you and Mike…that hill was awesome and seeing these pictures brought me back to that time. It’s like I am there all over again.
Great work as always!
Take care,
Gus

These are great
I am so stoked about getting my 5D! It came in the mail yesterday, and I couldn’t wait to start shooting with it. It’s going to get a thorough test drive this weekend!

Hey Shawn,
These are awesome!
Hopefully you can show me this hill in person one day.
Have a great time at WPPI! Sorry we won’t be able to meet up, but I look forward to when we finally do.
