The blood moon at full eclipse!steemCreated with Sketch.

I spent a little time out in the 25 degree weather here to get a few pictures of the Blood Moon. :)

It was very hard picture to get, because at full eclipse, the moon was so dim, that the camera wouldn't focus properly. I had to use 100% manual settings on the camera, and it got cold while I played.

The blood moon eclipse only happens three times in a century!

So here is what it looked like:

And:

Also:

On zoom it shows the actual light intensity:

So that is what I had to work with, and that us what made these pictures so difficult to begin with. But it was worth freezing to get some good pictures....

I hope you will enjoy these pictures.

Stay warm!

Understand, I was able to get some pictures similar to this. I hope to get a post out about it either today or tomorrow.

Thanks for sharing!

Happy to share! The last picture was the least processed picture, and showed the non enhanced light levels. THAT was what made it hard!

I will try to catch your post.

sir smithlabs, good job. I was out but it was cloudy and you couldn't see a dang thing. lol.

This was the most difficult set of picture I have posted, Light sucked, and it was below freezing but luckily no clouds!

Well it turned out pretty darn good though, at least I think, for an amateur without big equipment. I think it's worth more than 3 cents!

I was happy with the results, and I also think it is worth more than $0.03 USD with 11 likes, and seven comments. My account is a reputation of 54 and my account is worth $95 USD after 9200 posts and 15 months

On weku it is $0.22 USD for this same post so far with 4 likes and 6 comments, and I am at 60 reputation and it is worth $25 USD, after 430 posts in 2 months.

Some times it is good to compare apples and apples. I will stay on steemit, but I am doing much better on weku.

But with weku the crypto does what? how do we know it will even get on the exchanges?

The Initial Public Offering (IPO) will be opened in about two months, then we will see where it goes. It is sure to rise, since they are using Steemit's old platform design.

The exchanges will catch on to anything they can make money on, they will handle it soon enough.

In the mean time, I need to find a way to buy more.

sir smithlabs! I think it's going to crash and burn. Unless it has a limited supply and can solve a serious problem I doubt if it's going anywhere.

Using a proven plan, makes it much safer for weku. Them Steem sending them so very many free accounts may have cinched it. They doubled in size over the steemit hard fork. They are growing, and Steemit is shrinking, I worry about steemit more than weku.

But I do think they will both make it.
