Look: Super Moon+Blue Moon+Total Blood Moon Eclipse.

It's easy to shoot the theme of the eclipse, but it's difficult to shoot it all the time, because it's cold, because it's in Zhangjiakou area, and even more because it's in the cold field.

2018 65438+1October 3 1, I was caught by the tide of the moon and really experienced the cold care of Zhuolu. From 5: 30 p.m. to 12, I have been lurking in the mountains, having fun in hardships.

? First of all, I want to thank my wife for her constant company. I witnessed the whole process of super moon+blue moon+blood moon eclipse, which only happened once every 152 years, and also experienced warm condolences from the cold.

A few days ago, the popular science knowledge about the total lunar eclipse was overwhelming, and the whole people were obliged. Everyone can learn materials and tutorials from the Internet.

? What is super moon, blood moon and blue moon? Come to science again, don't bother.

? Super moon: refers to the perigee state of the moon as seen from the earth.

? Blood Moon: When an eclipse occurs, when the earth blocks the direct sunlight from reaching the moon, some sunlight will still bypass the edge of the earth, be filtered by the earth's atmosphere, and absorb purple, blue, green and yellow light, thus projecting strange red light on the moon, forming a blood-red blood moon.

? Blue moon: refers to the second full moon in a month (the first time is 65438+ this year10.2). It is not common to express this phenomenon by the rarity of the "blue moon", which has nothing to do with the color of the moon, nor does it mean that the moon will turn blue. Science popularization is over.

? My photographic equipment: Canon camera 5d3, lens 70-200, tripod, timing cable release, thick clothes, thin gloves, off-road vehicle.

70-200 lens shooting the big moon is the starting equipment, and the moon will be very small. He is all I have, so I have no choice.

I used Joe's plant software to simulate the composition of the scheme in advance, stepped on it in advance, and found the right position at 5: 30.

Use Joe's plant software to simulate the planned composition in advance, step on the spot in advance, and find a suitable place at 5: 30.

Set up a tripod, put a net bag on the shelf, and put heavy objects to increase stability. Install the camera, plug in the cable releaser, open the rear view screen, pre-raise the reflector, make a vertical composition, zoom in ten times and focus, and take pictures of the scenery in the blue sky for later synthesis. What's the most important thing about night shooting? Stable)

When shooting a total lunar eclipse, I'm going to take a picture with the eclipse, the red moon, as the center, and then count to both sides, with an interval of 13 minutes, so as to ensure that the eclipse and light have exactly the same edge exposure.

First, set the timer to shoot at an interval of 13 minutes, except for the number of 30 shots, m-file, and the aperture of 8 (then the aperture will increase or decrease with the change of the moon image. ) spot metering (in fact, spot metering is useless under manual operation). The exposure time of 70 to 200 shots of the moon should be controlled within 1.5 seconds to ensure that the picture is not blurred. Then the time came for the arrival of the holy spirit. 18: 27, I pressed the first one, and the timer started to work. In order to get the best effect, the parameters are constantly changed to debug shooting. The first picture is shown below.

Penumbral eclipse: the moment when the moon begins to enter the penumbra of the earth. See below.

The moment when the moon begins to enter the umbra of the earth. See below.

An eclipse is the moment when the moon completely enters the umbra of the earth. See below.

Eclipse: The moment when the center of the full moon surface is closest to the center of the Earth's umbra. See below.

Cold light: the moment when the moon is about to leave the umbra. See below.

Last contact: the moment when the moon leaves the umbra of the earth. Penumbral eclipse: the moment when the moon leaves the penumbra of the earth.

Some of them like light and shadow.

The temperature is getting lower and lower, my fingers are numb with cold, and the camera feels far away, so I have to drive nearby and get on the bus to keep warm every once in a while. I am afraid of missing the debugging and focusing time before shooting, so I set up a lot of alarm reminders on my mobile phone, which will ring 3 minutes before each shooting, and I will rub my hands and get off to continue.

Near midnight, the temperature was even lower. At this time, the wind stopped and it was too cold to stand. So I moved the camera to the car and the skylight opened. You can't move or talk when shooting, for fear of slight vibration. At this time, the elevation of the moon was too high, so I had to lie down and shoot. (It is not recommended to shoot in the car, it will be unstable. )

Finally, I finished filming, so I quickly packed my things, lifted my feet and started to leave. I miss a bed at 24 degrees room temperature.

To reflect the whole process of the total lunar eclipse in one photo, you need to synthesize PS later and share it with everyone.

Photoshop opens the copy layer of the landscape photo, first draws an auxiliary line with the pen tool, so that the moon sequence can be arranged neatly in the back, and then opens the first photo of Zhang Yueliang for matting. Because it is a full moon at this time, you can use the magic wand tool to click on the photo-select-deselect-copy the photo and move to the auxiliary line in the landscape photo.

But because there is a dark part in the eclipse, you can't mark the selection with a wand, otherwise the shadow of the moon will be as ugly as shredded paper. Use the ellipse tool to pull out a circular selection at the moon-select-transform the selection and resize it with the edge of the moon-select-adjust the edge-adjust the radius and move the edge-copy the photo-move to the landscape layer, and then you will have good eyesight and fingers. The final photo was successfully synthesized.

In this way, the whole process of total lunar eclipse appears perfectly in one photo. We have witnessed a century-old Covenant with this city.

Shooting location: Zhuolu, Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province (this city is the place where Xuanyuan Huangdi, the ancestor of the Chinese nation, fought in the past, and it has been said that Zhuolu was opened in ancient times).

After sharing, when there is an eclipse, don't say that you won't shoot the Olympics.
