This is a three hour long #photo sequence I took in Jan 2019 during a total lunar #eclipse at ESO's Paranal Observatory in #Chile

As the #Moon moves into the Earth's shadow it becomes red. When sunlight passes through the Earth's atmosphere, blue light is scattered away more efficiently than red light, which passes through almost unimpeded, like at #sunrise or #sunset.

From the Moon, you would see the Earth surrounded by a golden fiery ring.

Ein Paradies aus Schnee und Bäumen. Dort lässt es sich doch am schönsten verweilen und genießen.

Last night in the small village we're staying in here in the #uk we went for an epic walk and not only caught a stunning #sunset , the sight of multiple scampering bunnies and small cobbled roads near Tudor houses threatened by rampaging topiary... we also finally got to put eyes on the village legend, Mary, care of the "NO COMPLAINTS ABOUT SERVICE THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH MARY" sign at the local tea shop.

She was standing in a very mossy churchyard complaining to the vicar that the Victoria sponge at the last Women's Institute meeting was dry and demanding the vicar make someone called Linda fix the situation.

Meanwhile, the vicar looked like she wanted to put the Asda shopping bag she was carrying over her head and pretend she wasn't there.

How did we learn this was the true Mary of legend and not an impersonator? Her seven-year-old grandson was pretending to be a part of a holly hedge and earnestly informed us that he loves his gran but that his dad calls her a "mithering pain in the arse." He then showed us a pretty cool trick he can do with his scooter. It was very cool.

We then went home to our temporary housesitting #cat overlords Madame Harriet and Miss Smudge, who informed us loudly that they required their 2nd, 3rd and 4th dinners immediately!

It was truly an eventful and rather delightful little adventure.

Zakončení týdne večerním posezením s pány Gin & Tonic 🍹😁
