2021 Lunar Eclipse at the Washington Monument

            Yesterday morning's 97% Lunar Eclipse with the tip of the Washington Monument (taken at 3:59am). So cool to see and photograph!

For those wondering how the EXIF can say 8s, ISO 100: I used the iOptron Sky Guider Pro star tracker (w/ William Optics base) for this image. I first took the 8s moon shot. Then I turned off the tracker and re-focused to take the Washington Monument foreground shot (1:39 later). As with any star tracker shot with foreground, I then blended the foreground into the same position during post. It's a lot of work but it was also very rewarding to capture much better moon detail than I did during the 2019 lunar eclipse.
