Total lunar eclipse

For those of us living in my particular hemisphere, there was a total lunar eclipse last night.

Of course, I couldn't resist the temptation to get the camera out, so here are some photos I took, showing the different stages of it.

I'm actually amazed by how many eclipses there apparently are. eclipse.org.uk has a nice little feature which will tell you when other upcoming eclipses are. According to the site, there will be another total lunar eclipse in August of this year, as well as two partial solar eclipses this year alone. Lots more camera fodder.... yum!


These are very nice pictures! I was quite impressed by the eclipse myself. Anyway, told you I'd leave a comment.
