Partly cloudy lunar eclipse

[pietervdv]

Hi everybody,

Last night was partly cloudy, but I still went outside to photograph the lunar eclipse. It started out cloudy, but suddenly there was a clear sky for 5 minutes. Shortly after, everything clouded up and it started raining. I had to run for cover with the scope.

But I am still glad I got these, the clouds give it a special touch.

Shot with a nikon D90, hope you like them!

regards,

Pieter

Pieter, these are really nice images of the eclipse, that detail is really good with the contrasting sky and clouds as it makes its way way into the central umbra shadow is wonderful!

Thank you for sharing these great shots! Well done

Thanks so much! I was using my TeleVue np101is for these. Great alround scope.
