Super Moon + Lunar Eclipse = Super Blue Blood Moon!
Today is when both a Super Moon and a Lunar Eclipse will happen. I was able to witness it and get some photos. I only used my Fujifilm X-A3 camera equipped with a kit lens(16-50mm).
- A super moon means that the moon is at its closest point from Earth.
- A Lunar Eclipse happens when the Earth passes between the moon and sun.
Here's how it happens in some photographs:
I also made a gif to show the progress on how the moon changed when the lunar eclipse was happening.
I had to improvise with what I have, a mirrorless camera and its kit lens. I didn't have a telephoto lens nor a tripod. So, I stood on our roof deck and I had to somehow lean the camera on the wall and fence so the camera won't shake while I'm capturing those photos. I did minor edits on Photoshop especially on the Gif image.

You're welcome, thanks for the nice words!
@greymonolith tried with telephoto lens but we din't have a tripod so we couldn't get a clear image. Great photos!
Mine was handheld. Low SS (100-125), iso was 100-4000, ap was 5.6-11 i think, then manual focus. I just played with the settings.
