So yesterday morning there was a Super Blue Moon Eclipse which is much more succinct than my rendition of the phenomenon. Luckily, I live in an area where I had a great view and the clouds were in alignment too!
Earlier in the day, there was a spectacular sunset. I'm going to refer you to a few of someone else's photos since I didn't make it out there for this one, even though I saw the beautiful clouds from where I was at too.
The first is from the Instagram account @itsadogslife5 and is a still of the video from the gorgeous sunset. I've been following him and his dog Rocket for a while now and he's got one of my favorite accounts.
Rocket is an adorable pup that likes to chase the Coaster and Amtrak trains as they pass along the beach. He's adequately named, because when he spots one, he just takes off just like a rocket and when he shows that train who's boss, he trots back. On one of the posts, someone actually wrote a short story inspired by him.
The next account I am in awe of is @silvergirl619. Her account is a new discovery. Her photos of sunsets put mine to shame! But it's something for me to aspire to. :)
Somehow she manages to capture all the colors of the rainbow in some of her pics. It's truly breathtaking. Definitely check them out if you are on instagram! You won't be disappointed. Unless you are weird and hate pretty pictures!
I took a few pictures with my phone during the day. It was overcast for most of the morning and even in the afternoon, clouds were visible for as far as I could see. I didn't really fret about it because I wasn't sure if the supermoon/lunar eclipse was happening that night or the night after. Even after I confirmed the date, I just set my alarm and went about my business.
This pic isn't as intresting as those above, but you can see that clear skies weren't guaranteed.
By the time the early morning came, all the clouds were gone, leaving a clear sky and a perfect view of the eclipse. Many pictures were taken. Many, many, many were taken. And these are the best ones of the bunch. :)
Only a few people were up to catch this as well. I saw a few guys jogging and thought, "Woah, are they dedicated!!" After all it was around 5am, pitch black and about 50F out. The earliest I have ever been up for exercise is 6am boot camp. That was great and brutal all at the same time. Anyway, I digress.
We took a few in the parking lot, then we headed to the parks that are nearby, hoping that there would be less light.
After taking probably 30 to 40 shots, these are the best ones that were in focus. Yay for the 2 second delay and tripod that allowed for this to happen!
