                     Another 
                      fantastic Moon eclipse...the last total eclipse of the Moon 
                      until 2011 for my location. The Moon seemed placed by someone 
                      on a background full of stars..it waas magnificent ! Photo

                     This 
                      eclipse was fighting some high clouds that somewhat softened 
                      the views. This image sequence was made with a Canon 300D, 
                      ISO 100-800, 1/40 second to 1 second, and a 500mm Maksutov 
                      telescope.   |

                     I 
                      shot the eclipse from the bitter cold in western Iowa(0F). 
                      I mainly took photos to document the sky going dark as the 
                      moon was eclipsed. I just love that aspect of lunar eclipses. 
                      I have a gif animation of this on my site. The first frame 
                      looks like day, but it's not, just strong moonlight and 
                      a longer shutter. As the eclipse progresses the stars pop 
                      out and the ground darkens. It's kind of neat. I didn't 
                      mean to make an animation out of the shots I was taking 
                      for it, but noticed I sort of was towards the end. Anyway, 
                      all were taken with a rebel XT, canon 10-22 EF-s, canon 
                      17-40L, and canon 100-400L...ISOs between 100 and 1600. 
                      As soon as the eclipse was completely finished I stumbled 
                      onto a big moon halo, as if the moon was saying, "hey you, 
                      I'm not done yet." I guess I also have an iridium flare 
                      in one of the shots documenting the sky lightness as the 
                      eclipse got underway. There's a lot to shoot on an eclipse 
                      night, other than just the zoomed in eclipsed moon images.

                     I 
                      observed the 2008 Feb. 21 eclipse from a village in central 
                      Iran, with crystal clear winter sky of the high altitude 
                      region. At the site total eclipse started at the moonset 
                      in dawn.   |

                     Despite 
                      the fog and and passing clouds, we spent a nice time on 
                      the beach taking pictures of the landscape under the Full 
                      Moon, before the eclipse, especially a 
                      nice animation showing the tide going up, and emerging 
                      the tip of my tripod, so that the frame is shifting a little 
                      as is sink in the wet sand! During the eclipse, we moved 
                      to another place to put a menhir (erected about 3000 BC) 
                      in the picture.   |

                     It 
                      was clear leading up to totality, but then clouds moved 
                      over for a little more then an hour. Only one small brake 
                      in the clouds gave me a short glimps of the total eclipse. 
                      After the total eclipse was done the clouds moved out and 
                      I was able to get some more pics using a 10" SNT and a Canon 
                      Rebel XT.   |

                      It has always fascinated me how dark it gets and how the 
                      shadows change during a lunar eclipse. I used a Nikon D200 
                      with an 11 mm lense to take 30 second exposures untill mid 
                      eclipse when the batteries in the camera stopped working 
                      at the 4 degree F outside temperature.   |
