       Visually, there's a reddish hue that still doesn't show up in the exposure. 11:11PM local time (UTC -4).

       Interesting to prove Earth’s curvature by watching its circular shadow… 😉

       Visually, the red tones on the #moon could be easily appreciated, while trying not to overexpose the illuminated region still barely shows any "totality"... 11:24PM local time (UTC -4) #eclipse

       #Totality, or "peak #eclipse", occurs 12:11AM local time (UTC -4). Afterwards, the whole process continues backwards...

       By now, a 5-second exposure yields a pretty neat image! #moon #eclipse 11:37PM (UTC -4).

       Well, I've cropping my images to show you a "larger" #moon, but this is a full frame image, which shows an unusual sight, a #full moon with stars! #eclipse 11:39PM (UTC -4)

       Well, here it is, #eclipse #totality... One of the greatest and easiest astronomical events to observe. In the past, events like these changed hearts and the course of history.
