20060908 Partial Lunar Eclipse

Full of cloud cover, thin and thick, but still observable... However, that makes some of the detail lost, and the shadow of the Earth was not well captured, since some of the photographs were underexposed, making the shadow larger than it should be.

To address this issue, I intentionally overexposed a few shots, to see which part of the lunar disc is really black, or just a effect of cloud and underexposure.

All shots are taken with Borg 45ED, DMK 31AF03, no tracking. Thus it is an example to show field rotation as well.

more photographs pending..
