What’s the best way to photograph the lunar eclipse?

給月食拍照的最佳方法是什么？

　　To take a picture of the supermoon or the lunar eclipse with a smartphone, tap on the moon on the screen and hold your finger in place to lock the camera’s focus. Then adjust the exposure slider that appears next to your finger to get the right balance of light for your shot.

　　如果用智能手機拍攝超級月亮或月食的照片，可用手指在手機屏幕上輕點月亮，并保持一會兒，以便鎖定對焦。然后調節(jié)出現在手指旁邊的曝光滑塊，獲得拍攝照片合適的光平衡。

　　If you’re using a DSLR, NASA’s senior photographer Bill Ingalls recommends that you use the daylight white balance to adjust for the sunlight being reflected off the moon. He says that it’s important to keep in mind that the moon is a moving object: “It’s a balancing act between trying to get the right exposure and realizing that the shutter speed typically needs to be a lot faster.”

　　如果用數碼單反相機，美國國家航空航天局高級攝影師比爾•英戈爾斯建議使用日光白平衡來調節(jié)月亮反射的太陽光。他說，重要的是記住月亮是移動的物體，“努力達到恰當曝光的同時也要知道快門速度需要比平時加快，這兩者要小心兼顧”。

　　To get an original shot, Ingalls suggests taking a picture that puts the moon in context of a local landmark, something that gives your photo a sense of place. “Don’t make the mistake of photographing the moon by itself with no reference to anything,” say Ingalls. “Everyone will get that shot.”

　　要想拍到一張有創(chuàng)意的照片，英戈爾斯建議拍照時把月亮放在某個本地地標物的背景下，這個地標物可以讓照片有一種地域感。他說：“不要在沒有任何參照物的背景下單獨拍月亮。那種照片誰都能拍。”

Do I need special glasses to watch the supermoon and lunar eclipse?

是否需要特殊的眼鏡觀測超級月亮和月食？

　　與日全食不同，月全食對于觀賞器材的要求并不高。因此，觀看月全食，你需要準備的是……在一個天氣晴朗、看得見月亮的地方，吃飽穿暖，擦亮眼睛。

　　Unlike the solar eclipse, the supermoon and the lunar eclipse are safe to view with the naked eye. There’s nothing to worry about if you find yourself enthralled and staring up into the sky for a very long time. Except maybe your neck.

　　與日食不同，超級月亮和月食可以安全地用裸眼觀測。如果你發(fā)現自己著迷地長時間凝望天空，不用擔心什么。只是脖子可能會不舒服。
