Antarctica is a bucket list destination for countless landscape and wildlife photographers, and for good reason. Dramatic, jagged mountain peaks rise high over colonies consisting of millions of penguins living on the frozen earth below. While photographing Antarctica is a rare experience in itself, photographing a total solar eclipse in Antarctica is akin to winning the lottery.
An astrophysics student captured a unique conclusion to his time in college thanks to a total lunar eclipse that occurred on the day of his graduation.
A total lunar eclipse wowed viewers around the world this week and in one timelapse video, it can be seen dramatically cutting the light of the night sky to such a degree that the Milky Way suddenly bursts into view.
On Monday, large portions of the planet were treated to a total lunar eclipse. And while there were many excellent opportunities to photograph it from Earth, one astronaut shared her photos that were taken from space.
The Mars Perseverance rover has captured detailed footage of Phobos, one of the Red Planet's moons, crossing the face of the Sun. It is the most zoomed-in, highest frame-rate observation of a Phobos solar eclipse taken from the Martian surface.
The United States will play host to a total solar eclipse in April of 2024. While looking at an event two years away might sound like planning overkill, it will be the last time to catch one in the contiguous U.S. until 2044.
On December 4, 2021, a total solar eclipse occurred over the skies of Antarctica. It was the only place on Earth where it was visible, and this photo from space shows the huge shadow the event cast over the southernmost continent.
On December 4, a total solar eclipse was only visible from Antarctica, which is where Theo Boris and Christian A. Lockwood were positioned to photograph it and live stream the event for NASA.
The longest partial lunar eclipse in 580 years occurred this week, and photographers around the world did their best to capture the once-in-a-lifetime event on camera. Photographer Andrew McCarthy went the extra mile by staying up until 4am and capturing thousands of photos to create an incredible composite of the eclipse.
Tonight, a lunar eclipse that coincides with the Beaver Moon will result in 97% coverage and will last around 3.5 hours, making it the longest-lasting in 580 years.
A New York photographer planned and sketched in great detail a solar eclipse photo he wanted to capture ahead of the event, and managed to match that plan perfectly in his finished image.
In the morning hours of June 10th, a "ring of fire" solar eclipse greeted sky observers in the northeast United States, northern Canada, Europe, northern Asia, Russia and Greenland. While most photographers captured single photos of the eclipse, Göran Strand decided to show the entirety of the rare eclipse from his backyard in Östersund, Sweden.
Photographer Zev Hoover was shooting the solar eclipse early this morning when a bird happened to fly through the frame. He then decided to create this unusual image showing the trail of the dark silhouetted bird against the partial annular eclipse.
Annular solar eclipses give us the chance to capture incredible photos. Photographer Josh Cripps shot an incredible photo of one back in 2019. Simply legendary!
G’day from Australia, my name is Jason De Freitas (@jase.film on Instagram), and I’m a photographer mostly known for my analog astrophotography. In this article, I’ll describe the process and decisions I went through to take this lunar eclipse multi-exposure sequence on medium format film.
You're about to learn everything you need to photograph a lunar eclipse, including the upcoming total lunar eclipse on May 26, 2021. Everything!
Photographer Joshua Cripps recently captured something really cool. Finding himself in the UAE leading up to an annular solar eclipse, he decided to try and shoot a dynamic portrait in the middle of the 'ring of fire' effect created by this kind of eclipse.
Here's an unusual sunrise that was captured a few days ago in Qatar. A solar eclipse was underway as the Sun began rising above the horizon, making the Sun look like it was split into two pieces (and like red horns rising into the sky).
In August of 2017, the team at Sent Into Space travelled to Fort Laramie, Wyoming to capture something incredible for the BBC. Using a high-altitude weather balloon and a 360° camera array, they captured what they claim is "the world's first hyperlapse of an eclipse from the edge of space."
Photographer Dan Marker-Moore visited a remote location in South America to capture the 2019 total solar eclipse back on July 2nd. He then took the photos of the progression and turned them into beautiful "time slice" composites.
One of the best things time-lapse photography has given me is my interest in astronomy. When I started shooting the night sky, I needed to learn basic astronomy in order to understand what I was photographing. Thanks to that, I was able to capture a time-lapse of the total solar eclipse this past July 2nd in Córdoba, Argentina.
During the recent total solar eclipse in Chile, professional outdoor photographer Ted Hesser was on hand on an indie film shoot to help do something that had never been done before: capture a movie scene with totality as the backdrop.
Photographer and astronomer Matt Robinson was in Chile for the only total solar eclipse of 2019 on July 2nd, and he managed to capture the total eclipse in a drone hyperlapse.
Last week I made the long trip from the UK to Chile in the hopes of capturing my first total solar eclipse. I had experienced a cloudy total solar eclipse from the UK in 1999 but back then I was just 9 years old and certainly no photographer. Now that I’m apparently a professional landscape astrophotographer, a total solar eclipse was a gaping hole in my portfolio.
Photographer Albert Dros may have captured one of the coolest photos of yesterday's total solar eclipse in Chile. In addition to a few striking photos of a his model, Bart Lablans, standing next to the eclipse, he also managed to capture Bart "holding" it at totality. Take that cliché Leaning Tower of Pisa photos.
The Great American Eclipse was a total solar eclipse that was visible from the US back on August 21st, 2017. Nearly two years later, astrophotographer Phil Hart has just released this 2-minute short film of it, titled "The Moon in Motion."
Photographers have captured many awe-inspiring photos of solar eclipses in recent years. But Earth isn't the only planet photos are being shot from: NASA's Curiosity rover has captured some beautiful solar eclipse photos over the past few weeks from the surface of Mars.
During the super blood wolf moon total lunar eclipse on Monday, cameras pointed at the moon captured the first known sighting of a meteorite slamming into the shadow-covered moon. This 24-second video of the impact was released by Jose Maria Madiedo at the University of Huelva in Spain.
Photographer Jason Weingart shot this beautiful composite photo of the super blood wolf moon total lunar eclipse on January 20th and 21st. The image features six stages of the moon that night as it rose from the horizon and became totally eclipsed.
