Lunar Eclipse over Brighton West Pier

The lunar eclipse of 14 March 2025 occurred during dawn twilight and became total just as the Moon set. I photographed it at three minute intervals over an hour from a fixed point on Brighton beach, looking over the ruins of West Pier. As the Moon passed into Earth's shadow, the sunlit part gets ever smaller until the last tiny sliver becomes lost in haze on the horizon in the minutes before sunrise at 6.17am.
