Time-lapse photography shows the Oct. 8th lunar eclipse from Marina Park

A photographer in Thunder Bay took these photos of the 'blood moon' from Marina Park early Wednesday morning.

Victor Chimentisaid it was a challenging shoot because of the one-hour window to catch the changing light on the moon.

"I shot four different angles with four different lenses," the 21-year-old said. "You've got a limited time to shoot, no time to play around."

It's the first time the self-described 'up-and-coming' photographer has attempted to shoot a lunar eclipse.

Chimenti said he didn't catch the full eclipse, whenthe moon goes completely dark, but was happy to have capturedthe full moon turning red.

He recently launched Costal Productions, a video and photography company with a focus on time-lapse photography.

"My whole live I've really admired time-lapse," he said.
