Lunar Eclipse over Brisbane

As you may know, a total lunar eclipse took place last night. This happens when the Earth moves directly between the Sun and the Moon, causing the Moon to pass completely through the darkest part of Earth’s shadow.

During the total phase of the eclipse, sunlight filtered through Earth’s atmosphere and bent toward the Moon, casting it in a striking red or copper glow.

From start to finish the whole eclipse took three hours and fourty minutes. The first photo was captured at 7:46 p.m., and the final image was taken at 11:26 p.m.

Since I was outside I thought I'd photograph aircraft coming into Brisbane as they pass by home.
