I used my Canon SX50, the camera with the crazy zoom lens, to score the photos. One of them even ended up on KGUN 9 TV this morning. That's a pretty awesome thing for a barely amateur photographer like me. It may have helped that the show the photo was on happens to be the same show that I manage, but we'll pretend that's not part of the equation.
It was a clear night and a pretty spectacular view.
The start of the lunar eclipse on April 14, 2014 as seen from the balcony of the Ken Carr World Headquarters at 11:20 p.m. |
11:40 p.m. and the shadow continues to creep across the moon. |
12:15 a.m. and the shadow is now 90 percent across. You can see the reddish color that the shadow causes. |
The last Kenparazzi photo of the blood moon / lunar eclipse I shot at 12:35 a.m. That little bright thing down to the lower right is Mars. This is the photo that was shown today on KGUN 9. |
