World at night

Partial lunar eclipse

Night clouds may be a creative opportunity, although they generally lead to limitations in the visibility of a celestial event. Last evening was such an opportunity. The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

There is enough structure in the image to please one’s eye. The color of the Moon has a rusty tone outside the central shadow of the earth.

The composite of this capture with a mood picture on site is technically not completely satisfactory. I should have made more different exposures of the night sky.

I like to make things visible the naked eye isn't able to see. That's part of my profession as a radiologist, too.
