A spectacular lunar eclipse graced the skies over Melbourne this morning, offering a breathtaking celestial display for observers.

This incredible capture was made possible using a Fujifilm X-T3 camera, paired with the powerful XF100-400 lens and a 2x teleconverter. The photographer utilized an ISO of 1600, an aperture of f11, and a 15-second exposure to freeze the moment of the eclipse.

The result is a remarkably clear image, highlighting the subtle colors and textures of the Moon as it passed through Earth's shadow. This event serves as a beautiful reminder of the dynamic nature of our solar system and the wonders that can be observed from our own planet.

Many enthusiasts praised the photograph, with one commenter simply stating, "This is great man, love it!"
