Eclipse over Lion’s Head

A lunar eclipse happened some time back. The images show Lion’s Head and the night hikers lamps. Lions Head is part of the Table Mountain National Park. Lion’s head is a popular hike and is done regularly at night especially when there is an interesting astronomical event happening as in the images below.

A red/orange moon sets over the shoulder of a mountain. Hikers head lamps can be seen on the mountain.

Full Moon

We had a disturbance at 4 am which hurled me out of bed. Of course the camera went along. Just in case. There was a full moon just setting over Lions Head. Not a brilliant image, but fun anyway.

Full Moon

This is a set of photographs that I took when going to photograph a full moon. The clouds, as usual came up and messed up the moon, but they did leave me with some fine sunset photographs

The only pictures I got of the full moon. And then sunset came

Sunset and Full Moon in Cape Town

This evening it is full moon and I was fortunate enough to be on Table Mountain for the rise of the moon and the setting of the sun. I got some lovely pictures.
