Lunar Eclipse [updated]

A clear night sky on November 9th allowed to take some decent pictures of the total lunar eclipse.

The image is a composition of two separate pictures, the left one taken during totality, the right one a few minutes after totality with the moon moving out of Earth’s umbra. The problem with lunar eclipse photography is long exposure times. Even a bright eclipse such as this one, photographed with ISO 400 film and f/8, required 3s exposure time, which already introduces some motion blur. At 600mm the moon is moving quite fast across the frame! So for the new composition I took two circular cut-outs of the original scanned images, removing some of the horizontal motion blur and the halo of brightly iluminated part of the moon in the penumbra. For more stuff on lunar eclipse photography I highly recommend MrEclipse.com.

Jennifer – Summer 2003

A portrait of my daughter Jennifer from last year, trying to get away from the “cute little girl” images.

It’s always fascinating to see emotions changing that rapidly with small children, both in looks and gestures. This image is also posted at photo.net for critique, feel free to add your comments or contribute a rating. There is a slight difference in cropping between the image here and at photo.net. All landscape images here have an aspect ratio of 4:3, whereas the photo.net image is 3:2 like the original negative.

Zoo Cologne – Meerkats

Always cute, the meerkats in their new enclosure near the zoo entrance.

In Cologne, the meerkats are quite well known from the commercials for the beer Früh Kölsch. So quite naturally, you’ll find some beer barrels in their enclosure. ;-)
More images can be found in the new album zoo.
