Lunar Eclipse
Thursday, February 21, 2008
In case you didn’t know, there was a total lunar eclipse last night, and we won’t be able to see another one until 2010.
I stayed outside for several hours last night to capture every stage of the eclipse, and I got about 150 pictures of it, but I had to narrow it down to just a few for the image below. Feel free to click and download this thing at any size you want. The largest size fits Apple’s 30 inch display, so hopefully it will fit yours.
I learned a lot about astral/moon photography doing this also. A small 2 second exposure actually gives the moon enough time to move and blur the photo slightly. Two seconds!
