Quite fond of these ones just for having Saturn in the image.

Great eclipse.
fucking cold though.

Nice ones Seth C!

Here's a few of mine (10-inch Dob - 25mm lens + Powershot):

Wow, man. Excellent stuff. Any chance I could have a look at the originals?

Is it too late to see it live? Is it still visible in the states?

 

[Hitokage]

Just checked Stellarium, and yeah, that's Saturn next to it.

Turk: Sorry, the moon has long since left Earth's shadow. There won't be another total eclipse until December 2010.

Yeah, so I just took these tonight. Was -43C outside, frikkin hands almost fell off.

Bloody hell I slept straight through it. Knew it was wishful thinking trying to get up at 3am! Great photos though, thanks.

It was PERFECT in Chicagoland. Not a cloud in the sky. Plus, the full moon made it bright as hell for driving after midnight.

Today's APOD is pretty cool:

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap080222.html

Explanation: Moon watchers blessed with clear skies over the Americas, Europe, Africa and western Asia enjoyed a total lunar eclipse this week. Catching eclipsed moonlight, astroimager Jerry Lodriguss offers this view of the inspiring celestial event with the shadowed Moon accompanied by wandering planet Saturn at the left, and bright Regulus, alpha star of the constellation Leo, above. The engaging composite picture was made by combining a filtered, telephoto image of the Moon and surrounding starfield with a telescopic exposure. The combination dramatizes the reddened moonlight while clearly showing the variation of brightness and color in Earth's not-so-dark shadow across the lunar surface.
