A lunar eclipse is when the moon falls in the earth’s shadow, so the earth is directly between the moon and sun. A lunar eclipse (total) makes the moon appear dark or red ("blood moon"). A new moon makes the moon invisible as its illuminated side faces away from Earth.

The print is pretty spectacular… it’s a 17”x 17” (image size 14x14) on Hahnemuhle PhotoRag (if you don’t know the paper, it is a 100 % cotton archival paper with a matte finish which gives it a beautiful texture)

Pine Flat Road, outside of Healdsburg, CA is one of my favorite places to photograph… when there are cool clouds, even more so!

It was a #cold morning! This is an atypical Tunnel View photo… most of the time you see the sweeping expanse of the whole valley.
