From Elmsley Rest Home

Visited my dear friend Peggy today. She is 98 and still as sharp as sharp. By the car park were these lovely pink blossom with the mountains as a back drop. I have taken photos there before as there is always something lovely in bloom.

Out late last night with R getting lots of photos of the blood moon. Seems you can either get the light or dark side during the eclipse, not both in one photo. Got quite a few good shots and almost an equal number of fuzzy ones where the camera went funny with the focus. I thought that having the plus or minus ( lighter or darker) worked best at -3 Did anyone else play with this. Yes i should have done manual focus but it was too dark and I had forgotten how. also I suspect that when the camera hits it it is sharper than I could get.
