While getting an author's permission to use his photo on the blog, I visited his site and found some truly amazing work. The author, Daniel Lopez, very nicely gave me permission to use any of his photos on the blog, and I wanted to show you some of the outstanding images he's created.
Daniel has several progressive shots of this green flash. That glowing horizon with the uniform burnt sky and landscape must have been something to see.
Now here I spent so much time staring at the Moon with my mouth hanging open, I almost didn't see Saturn (at 8:00 o'clock) in this shot. I had to shrink the image to fit the blog, of course, but it enlarges!
Look at how bright the landscape is with that clear star field.
I can almost smell the air in this shot.
Can you imagine standing there looking at this?
This will take you to Daniel's site, and…
This link will take you to an animation of a total lunar eclipse Daniel put together. NICE!
I'll be linking Daniel to this post, and he's agreed to answer any questions you have about his work. Daniel says he doesn't speak English well, and asks your patience. I found his English to be excellent, by the way.
