Got my pictures of the total lunar eclipse together, this was my first attempt at doing a final collage photo at each phase, which I kind of bunged up the timings a little bit but it still turned out good enough.
Wow thankyou everyone! I was not expecting to get 280+ upvotes
Nice! Except…
Apparently the first 4 photos are off by 90⁰ from the last five photos. I’m assuming the auto leveling sensors got a bit confused when the moon was directly overhead.
It might have helped to disable the auto orientation/leveling thing in the camera app first, but at least it’s easy enough to turn 90⁰ in software.
Yeah I was using a reflector telescope on a tripod with a counterweight so once the moon reached peak sky height, I had to flip the orientation of the telescope. Basically the reason why they flipped was because I kept the camera leveled with the horizon while I flipped the telescope instead of also flipping the camera.
