March 3, 2007 Lunar Eclipse


Last night I took this photo of the total eclipse of the Moon.

At sunset it was mostly cloudy but a break in the clouds less than an hour later allowed me to shoot this photo before the end of the total phase of this eclipse. I used an 80mm F/5 refractor & Nikon Coolpix 4500 digital camera, 2 second exposure with 18mm eyepiece.
