Thanks all. Very little post-processing & only sharpened 1 click. There used to be a lot of Guinea Fowl in town but I suspect many have been eaten in recent years with the changes in demographics. Small, demi-domesticated groups like these are hanging on. Alan C -Original Message-

You can find your eclipse phases times, e.g. here: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/lunar/2018-january-31 or here: http://aa.usno.navy.mil/data/docs/LunarEclipse.php Note the altitude. I've just realized that we'll need to get to a hill to see it... Igor Ken Waller Tue, 30 Jan 2018

Re: DA 40mm

The DA 40mm lenses are supposed to be exactly the same optical formula as the old M 40mm f2.8, with more modern coatings.  I can't say whether that's true or not, I have an old M version and didn't see any particular reason to duplicate it with an AF version.  On the other had the 40mm seems

Re: HELP! Advice on Lunar Eclipse Photography

Super Moon because it's close to perigee (appears about 7% larger). Blue Moon because it's the second full moon in the month of January. Blood Moon because it's going to be a total lunar eclipse. It's a fairly rare thing for all three to occur during the same full moon. The last time one was

Re: HELP! Advice on Lunar Eclipse Photography

I've given this a bit more thought and it seems to me you go to the same place every time you go out to Hawaii. If that's true, might there be someplace out there where you could store a tripod between visits? Alternatively, you might consider shipping the tripod to where-ever you are going

Half way through the submission period and we're into the lull that always comes between the initial rush and the last minute flail ;-) Still, judging by the overall quality of the images we've received so far I could probably put together a damn fine book right now... Just a reminder: Everything

After that crappy shot in half darkness I posted last night, I got another chance this morning. I coaxed the family out from under a Pumbago bush with some crushed maize. As you can see, still very dry with no rain in sight. https://www.flickr.com/photos/wisselstroom/39950389472/ K5 with the
