Hi Mike,

The 3 o'clock position (3rd image down the right side) of
your composite picture here:

ec21-2010.jpg>

is one of the better lunar eclipse pictures I've seen for showing
both the umbral and penumbral terminators simultaneously. This is
not an easy image to capture since there is such a huge change in
brightness between the sunlit, penumbral and umbral regions of
the Moon's disk. Nicely done! --Rob

I had a great eclipse observing and photography session last night,
but boy am I tired.

Photographing an eclipse is a real challenge, but luckily the clouds
stayed away for most of the night and everything came together pretty
well.

I uploaded some of the photos here:

I had a fish eye camera working the whole night, hoping to catch a
meteor, but didn't get that lucky.
