Lunar eclipses don’t come along too often so I always feel obligated to observe and photograph them, even if it means missing out on much-needed beauty sleep (and I need all the help I can get in that regard!).

I wasn’t too inclined to drive anywhere so I captured the event from my bedroom window last night. That actually turned out to be quite convenient as I only had to walk a few feet to get into bed afterwards. Ha!

For this image, I opted to not crop it too tight and offset the moon to the side. Turning up the ISO (sensitivity) allowed me to capture the gorgeous orange lunar eclipse among some stars.

If you missed the show, there will be another visible in North America on November 7th / 8th.
