Some handheld shots of the total eclipse of the moon this morning (Saturday, Dec. 10, 2011), as seen from my driveway. It's the last total eclipse until 2014.
Shot at 200mm zoom, 3200 ISO, 1 second exposure (except the fourth shot, 1/8th)

| 7:00 am, no contrast Total eclipse occured at 7:06 am, at which point it disappeared behind the hill. I climbed to a higher vantage point, but the moon was virtually invisible, as the sunrise was officially at 7:22 am and moonset was at officially 7:25 am (but only for people with a perfect view of the horizon). |
