A stunning low-angle HDR shot of Lick Observatory's 36-inch Great Refractor telescope pointed at a partially eclipsed Moon during the November 19, 2021, lunar eclipse. The telescope's interior is illuminated by red light, contrasting with the partially cloudy night sky where the Pleiades star cluster is visible near the eclipsed moon.
