Picture Perfect Infinite

The image above was taken last August when we had a perfect view of the Lunar Eclipse here in Australia.

I have a set of images taken by my sons on that crisp cool winter evening. 

One with a video camera and the other using a digital camera and both using tripods for the best out come over several hours of observing and shooting the moon as it went through the varying stages of the eclipse.

 I chose this one which looks best if you click on it and view it full size..

When ever I gaze into the starry night which I love to do often, I think of the infinite of our Universe and the Beyond. I am always filled with awe.

Thank you for stopping by and I am leaving  a slide show I made of this event, for anyone who wishes to view it.

Picture Perfect Tour Starts Here.

    I agree with you. The sky is infinite. A photo of the night sky is perfect to illustrate the theme. Wish I had a telescope now.

    I must go to bed now as it is 12.30am here but I want to thank you all for your visits and I will get to you all over the next few days. I think these images remind me of the pearls of the infinite in the night sky.

    Infinite is hard to capture, both physically and mentally, I think. Nice job.

    What a lovely color Milli! I remember waiting up late into the night to watch lunar eclipse a few years back. But then it was a pearly pink color not this red. Ahh Moon! Such a thing of beauty!!

    Beautiful slide show too.

    Lunar eclipse! I love it. I was bummed that I couldn't get a picture of the one last week. I guess we needed the rain more.

    i cannot afford to go to australia, but it has come to my doors, thanks to the hostess and you. the lunar eclipse was also not that visible. the slide show is elaborate.your theme is good. congratulations. i am learning photography. this scheme has been advised to be seen by a friend of mine. i am happy i found it. many ideas concur on a particular theme. i have nothing to offer now. i am learning, i have joined multiply only recently. thank you
