As a photography you look forward to\u00a0opportunities such as a lunar eclipse and the Blood Moon. \u00a0These events do not always happen at an agreeable hour. \u00a0That is usually fine given the level of sacrifice (sleep) that is necessary to photography something truly beautiful. \u00a0Regular followers know that I am typically up at 4 a.m. and out the door by 5 a.m. to arrive at\u00a0work in St. Paul by 6 a.m. \u00a0I was extremely pleases that the timing coincided with my commute into work.<\/p>\n

I started out shooting just outside of New Trier, MN a little after 5 a.m. and caught the beginning of the lunar eclipse. \u00a0It was a chilly early morn. \u00a0I neglected to bring a jacket – that’s wasn’t too bright. \u00a0As I stood there sipping coffee to offset the chill I reviewed the moon-set path on The Photographer’s Ephemeris<\/a>. \u00a0As I suspected the moon set was going to line up perfectly over the St. Paul skyline. \u00a0 I snapped a few more frames and then headed for the overlook off of Mounds Blvd. \u00a0I wasn’t shocked to find the parking lot full. \u00a0There were plenty of photographers and look-e-loos taking in the sight. \u00a0I didn’t have any trouble finding a spot to setup. \u00a0Out of coffee, I walked back and forth from my car to my tripod to fire off a few frames periodically. \u00a0Here are a few shots from the early morning eclipse.<\/p>\n
