Today, I was invited for a little outing to the beach and look what I saw. The gulls were flying over Malibu and Santa Monica in the distance. Meanwhile, the surfers rode by.
Portrait of the moon. 
The star to the right of the moon is in the Constellation Virgo. The photo was taken at 1:16:30 a.m. at my house in Los Angeles. 
I’m not sure what Bugs Bunny has to do with King Kong, except that it’s Easter weekend. But I made a cartoon out of the image. 
I had to watch for a long time and take a lot of photos to get a small number of good shots, but it was worth it. These are just a few samples as the sun’s shadow fell over the moon. This was before the “blood moon.”
The moon is rising here, between the contrails. Mars is above the highest contrail. First photo taken at 9:01 p.m., about two hours before the eclipse took its first bite out of the moon. You can see Los Angeles in the distance. I like the wind blowing the bushes to the left in the bottom photo, and the lights in the house to the right. Then, I became intrigued by this house and made it more of a highlight in the next photo, taken at 9:16 p.m. Photography is like painting with light.
