I was heading home from a meeting tonight, thankfully eastbound and thus enjoying a front row seat at the eclipse. Back home, my wife was pointing a camera at the event. The Canon S3 may not deliver noise-free zoom shots of astronomical phenomena, but I thought some of these shots were kind of cool. The bottom two show that effect where the atmosphere screens out the blue rays and reddens up the moon a bit.

I was so excited about the lunar eclipse. I was all prepared with my camera set up in the tripod. I had it all timed to be outside at the start.... Out I headed in minus 10 degrees looking like an Eskimo so I could watch the whole thing. NOTHING! Not a star or the moon to be seen anywhere. It was so cloudy that it was not visible in our area.
You got some great photos of it. Good job.
It clouded over maybe halfway through here in northern Ohio. As it is doing right now , preparing to dump snow on us!
