Quoting: betterlivings normal [link to i682.photobucket.com] picture i took [link to i682.photobucket.com] seems to be tilted, is this tilt normal? The first simply shows the phase and libration, any real picture taken from a non-polar aligned perspective is also subject to field rotation which depends on your position and the moon's position in the sky (thus phase charts cannot tell you what that will be because it depends on the specific observer). |

Just wait 3 to 4 hours and the orientation of the Moon in your second pic looks like the orientation of the Moon in your first pic. . :ase26122019: Annular Solar Eclipse - December 26, 2019 - Kannur, Kerala, India |
