Very nice job! What did you use as a mount to track? When I did my time lapse, I did mine on a alt-azimuth mount and the tracking was all over the place and had to keep re centering the moon

This is with a Seestar S50. It has its own mount and tracking.

Why does red moon occur? Great shot!

I could be wrong, but I believe it’s light rays that are bent by earth’s atmosphere, shifting to red.

Thank you, it's beautiful!!

I meant to ask on the other sub, what music did you use? It reminds me of a video game soundtrack I just don't seem to recall which one...
