Lunar eclipse tonight

[Ruger]

Check it out. Just started a few minutes ago. Pretty cool stuff. :cool:

EDIT- At least, it was going on when I submitted the thread. Forgot it would end up having to wait for approval. Not much point in this thread now. Might as well nuke it.

...Yeeah.

[evanazzo]

yeah thats why i mentioned it in the post thread last night. xD

[Hudson]

I was watching it last night, pretty damn awesome :D

[evanazzo]

i agree. i tried to get pictures but my cameras suck and they don't have good enough zoom

[Kevin Wolff]

It wasn't as red as ones I've seen in the past, but was neat to see anyway.

[Destroyer]

oh man i forgot about this. I was gonna go take a look with my telescope. :(

[Jeff]

I watched it through my astronomy software that I bought. Looks pretty cool close up.

[oak man]

I missed it, the damn sky was too cloudy :(

You are the 16th person I know who tried to use their camera on it, and you are the 16th to have camera trouble. :o


BTW: Saw it yesterday, good stuff.

wasn't really trouble its just my camera (a Minolta 5.5 megapixle) didn't have the zoom. i want a new one. the Nikon's my school use are so nice but there like 1200 and i don't have that kind of cash. in face i think i have all of 2 dollars left :( anyway back on topic

that was my first time seeing an eclipse the only others I've seen were made by Mitsubishi xD (Insert laugh track here)

I took this at 800 ISO and I think a half second or so exposure handheld. The whole thing looked kind of underwhelming and it was cold and windy, I didn't feel like getting my tripod. I probably should have, I might have gotten a really nice shot.

I don't think this one came out that bad. I have a few where I tried to take it without the flash. . .all bad but it makes it look like it is bouncing or something.

I went outside a couple of hours before the eclipse, and then the moon was really bright... How come?

[Wamplet]

there was rain and full clouds in the sky, so i couldn't check it out.
