for everyone

The image above was taken last August when we had a perfect view of the Lunar Eclipse here in Australia.

I have a set of images taken by my sons on that crisp cool winter evening.

One with a video camera and the other using a digital camera and both using tripods for the best out come over several hours of observing and shooting the moon as it went through the varying stages of the eclipse.

I chose this one which looks best if you click on it and view it full size..

When ever I gaze into the starry night which I love to do often, I think of the infinite of our Universe and the Beyond. I am always filled with awe.

Thank you for stopping by and I am leaving a slide show I made of this event, for anyone who wishes to view it.

Picture Perfect Tour Starts Here.

I agree with you. The sky is infinite. A photo of the night sky is perfect to illustrate the theme. Wish I had a telescope now.

I've always read and heard the night sky is amazing in Australia...someday I dream of coming to see for myself....but until then this is a beautiful reminder of my dreams.

I must go to bed now as it is 12.30am here but I want to thank you all for your visits and I will get to you all over the next few days. I think these images remind me of the pearls of the infinite in the night sky.

Brilliant! Lucky you to catch such an astonishing shot! I once tried to take a picture of the moon myself but it didn´t come out well.

Mine is up, too

Infinite is hard to capture, both physically and mentally, I think. Nice job.

What a lovely color Milli! I remember waiting up late into the night to watch lunar eclipse a few years back. But then it was a pearly pink color not this red. Ahh Moon! Such a thing of beauty!!

Beautiful slide show too.

Lunar eclipse! I love it. I was bummed that I couldn't get a picture of the one last week. I guess we needed the rain more.
