First two are of the hated oil rig, taken through double glazing on Sunday evening. Good news is that on Tuesday morning it was towed off after failing to find oil reserves :) Last ones are of the blood moon eclipse, I think I had too long a shutter speed for the focal length. Hindsight I should have used the S(007) with Leica 560/4 or Mamiya 600/5.6 - it is far better at higher ISO than the M(240), the latter bands far too easily. The actual eclipse was 1sec @ f5.6 1600 ISO and the first two images are full frame. The last image is one I did for somebody who had to work the following day, so missed it. There really was nothing to see if you were not taking photographs, just darkness! http://johnmcmaster.com/PAW/2019/04 C & C welcome john
