Thanks so much for posting these again Bob!

Both shots are great! I really like how you handled this. I like how the bit of moon poking over the tower looks like it’s radiating a glow. What focal length did you use for #1.

I am at Knotts Berry Farm eating lunch, I will Feature this once I get back home.

Hey Jim,
The time lapse was at 200mm f 5.6 for all except the last one which is the red blood moon. That one was a separate image at 600mm f 6.3 and 1/4 second exposure. Had to do the last one like that because it was so dark. I tried to incorporate all under the same conditions but when the moon gets total eclipsed it turns a dark red with very little light so I had to turn to more drastic measure in my capture.

I don't think I've seen a telephoto sequence like that with a ground layer before. Congrats on the feature!
