RHODES SCHOLAR SERENE SINGH NOWJAN. 20, 2019 The name sounds comically ominous: “Super blood wolf moon.” But the astrological spectacle — a type of total lunar eclipse that turns the moon reddish — amounted to a minor marvel. People were ready with cameras, Glenn Asakawa (Jour’86), CU’s chief photographer, among them. He took these images between 9:08 and 11:04 p.m. in Lafayette, Colo., using a tripod-mounted Lumix G9 micro four-thirds camera with Panasonic/Leica 100-400 zoom lens. You don’t have to know much about cameras or moons to be impressed by the results. 1 SPRING 2019 Coloradan ColoradanPhotos by SPRING Glenn Asakawa 2019 2 FEATURES EDITOR’S NOTE Serene Singh, CU Boulder’s first woman Rhodes Scholar, showed up ready to dance. It was late January and there’d been snow on the ground for days. She and CU photographer Glenn Asakawa went up to a Flatirons-facing building terrace. She brought some of her best bhangra dancing duds. He brought some of his best cameras. Serene, captain of the Colorado Bhangra Team, posed and danced as Glenn sought to capture a moment of pure bhangra, which in Hindi means “intoxicated by joy.” They’d been at it for more than an hour. “We were about to call it a day when she asked if I could get a photo of her jumping,” Glenn said. She leapt. He clicked. They walked away with 500 images.
