Some stills of the blood moon from the timelapse I posted earlier. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to photograph anything initially because of heavy cloud cover but I actually liked that they added a bit of uncertainty and drama for some of the images which made it more exciting.

I wanted to frame the moon with an iconic part of Nairobi. Thankfully KICC had scheduled a public viewing allowing the perfect opportunity to use the tower to frame the moon for something different than a standalone moon shot.

Order of photos:

1: The blood moon at totality with spectators watching the moon at the KICC helipad at 400mm
2: Slightly past halfway to totality at 100mm
3: Some detail of the tower and the moon approaching totality at 354mm
4: Almost at totality - 100mm
5: Close up of the moon approaching totality at 600mm
6. Blood moon at totality- 124mm
7: Blood moon at 100% totality - 800mm
8: 3 minutes past the end of totality - 800mm
