A selfie of the successful eclipse hunter observing the eclipse of the Moon, on the morning of November 19, 2021, having chased into clear skies to get the 97% partial lunar eclipse of Nov. 18/19, 2021 from Alberta. I drove 90 minutes north from home to near the town of Rowley, Alberta, to escape the clouds looming on the southern horizon. I shot this at 1:40 am MST with the Moon emtering deeply from the umbral shadow, but still quite bright and overexposed here below the Pleiades in Taurus, and to the west of the Milky Way. Orion and Sirius are at left. I had two cameras on trackers set up to shoot wide-field shots of the eclipsed Moon. This is a single 25-second exposure at with the Rokinon SP 14mm lens on the Canon 6D at ISO 3200. Topaz Sharpen AI applied to the subject.
