Blue Moon Watching

Hi y'all

I got around to creating the time lapse of the only Super Blue Moon from two days ago, even as I watched it many times, I still got the goosebumps to see the giant moon rising from behind the Lick Observatory.

Enjoy

PS: on the technical side, I find the lens support really improves the image quality, with a 600mm lens, even the slightest shake would result in jerking in the video.

Very cool Oliver! I am working on my Timelapse from it and so I was looking forward to seeing how you handled the exposure for it.

You did a really great job on this, now I need to finish this reply so I can go back and watch the Timelapse again!

So beautiful Oliver. What a great way to portray it.. I went out with a friend and the smoke was so bad we never even saw the moon.

Thank you, Trent. We get good weather once in a few years.

Beautiful Oliver. A very nice timelapse, very smooth. Nicely done.

Thank you, Bob.

I did a 60fps combine in Photoshop, then rendered it in 30fps; also the original pictures were taken with 1 sec interval to make it smooth.
