I decided to walk up to the observation tower at Tornberget on Friday evening to watch the blood moon. It's a 30 min trek through the forest. Thinking I was late I upped the pace and as it was 25C I was sweating profusely when I arrived to the tower. We were maybe 20-25 people there. And around 500 winged ants that took a big liking to me. When the moon was ready to rise we saw absolutely nothing because of the mist. Instead we looked at each others photos from the tower and I showed a few people my blood moon snap from 2007. Then all of a sudden it was getting dark and most people decided to leave. I managed to get lost in the dark within a few hundred meters from the tower. After twenty minutes or so I found my way back to the tower where I met a family that were going my way, so it's all thanks to them that I managed to find my way home! And then, there it was, the blood moon, visible between the trees for a few minutes. I had to shoot hand-held using a very high ISO, so the photo wasn't much to write home about but it still counts!
