Setting Flower Moon over Kunetice Castle
On May 26th, 2021, the full Moon appeared over Kunetice Castle, seen from Bohumileč, Czech Republic. The wonderful view was even more unique as just by that time, at 1:51 UTC, Moon was closest to Earth, producing popularly called “supermoon” (or Perigee Full Moon). I tried to catch the Moon by the time of its closest approach to Earth when setting over the castle, but the clouds were faster. Eventually, it still has some magic, especially due to the time of “blue hour” while Moon was setting over spring nature (thus also called “Flower Moon”), and the coming sunrise also illuminated the cirrus clouds with pink colors in the sky. Taken from about 3,5 km distance from the castle. The true challenge to set precise positions, indeed. For multiexposure used Canon 6D, Tamron 70-200 mm, f3.2, ISO 500, vary exposures (2-minute interval) from tripod. For detail image used Sony A7S, MTO 1100mm, f10.5, ISO 2000, vary exposures from a tripod.
