Partial lunar eclipse from July 16, 2019

Unfortunately, I was not able to observe this year's partial solar eclipse on March 29, 2025, as the sky was completely overcast. Too bad, so here is “only” an older photo from the 2019 event:

At first it was a bit hazy but later, towards the end of the eclipse, the sight got better so I was able to take a few shots. However, I enjoyed watching the show. Will take quite a while until we can see the next one.

"@capturetheatlas ✨ A Once-in-a-Lifetime Shot: Total Lunar Eclipse + Aurora Substorm! 🔴💚

Last Thursday night, under the freezing skies of Northern Alaska, I witnessed something I never thought I’d see in my lifetime…

A Total Lunar Eclipse—with the Moon fully immersed in Earth’s shadow—unfolded just as a powerful Aurora substorm exploded across the sky, painting the darkness with surreal waves of green and purple light.

I traveled thousands of miles, braving extreme cold and unpredictable weather, hoping for this rare celestial alignment. These two events rarely coincide—but on this night, everything lined up perfectly.

📸 Swipe to see the images & timelapse! Full-res shots are on my site at Capture the Atlas. You can also check out the RAW bracketed files from my close-up shot in my pinned IG stories.

This is why I chase the night sky—because sometimes, the universe gives us pure magic. Have you ever seen an eclipse or the Northern Lights? Let me know in the comments! ⬇️

I was confused about how the image even works so went to check it out. Very cool!

"Photographer’s Once-in-a-Lifetime Shots of the Lunar Eclipse and Aurora" by @PetaPixel - A photographer from Nevada took a chance on the possibility to capture the total #LunarEclipse with #AuroraBorealis. Eclipses always happen on schedule. But #weather may not cooperate. Especially unlikely for #spaceweather. But it worked. petapixel.com/2025/03/17/photo #Moon🔴 #aurora #astronomy #photography #space

PetaPixel · Photographer's Once-in-a-Lifetime Shots of the Lunar Eclipse and AuroraWhat a celestial combo!

✨"Phantom Moon" - I almost missed this eclipse as I couldn't decide where to go so I went back to one of my favorite locations near Big Cypress National Preserve. It's always thrilling looking up at the night sky during these celestial events knowing that I'm looking at the same sight that has sparked fear and wonder in mankind since the dawn of time. 🌑🌒✨🌴
