The Blood Moon

Last night many people around the UK stayed up to see the rare "blood moon" lunar eclipse. Whilst most people were a bit underwhelmed and many struggled to get a good shot of the red moon, Mike Mezuel II, in Texas, captured this STUNNING image. 

In his own words "After spending 5 hours on a rooftop with an incredible view of Dallas, I was able to create this composite image showing the moons transition from full moon, to full lunar eclipse, and back. Each moon image was shot approximately 10 minutes apart to capture the entire transition". The scene was shot on a Nikon D810

I really admire the time and dedication that went into this photograph and the outcome is spectacular. A once in a lifetime image.
