(You 80’s fans out there were about ready to sing weren’t you?)
Last night I captured the eclipse with my fancy smancy new camera and telephoto lens (I have a Canon Rebel). It made me want to buy a telescopic lens for further astronomical displays. I mean, clearly, the money I would spend on such a lens and the small number of chances I would have to use it would be balanced out by the awesome details I could capture. Right?
While the eclipse crept over the surface of the moon:
The moon almost fully eclipsed:

I have to say I was pleased with the detail I was able to capture with a camera, so far away from the moon. I could have stayed in the freezing cold snapping pictures all night!!

GREAT photos!!!
I totally forgot about the eclipse, and I was gonna take pics, too… crap!!
those pictures are amazing!
WOW!! Those shots are fabulous. A much better view than we got in my part of Kansas. The clouds coming in obscured the view quite a bit. Then those clouds brought us a lovely dose of sleet, snow and freezing drizzle. Glad you shared these!
I had absolutely no IDEA there was an eclipse going on! So glad you photographed it!
Tell me about your settings, woman! I must know!
Beeeeoooooooootiful!
Great set of photos!
I was stuck working inside a section of the building with no windows last night, so I’m glad you posted them 🙂
