Partial Lunar Eclipse

PARTIAL LUNAR ECLIPSE - 6/4/2012


We set an early alarm to wake up and see this morning's partial lunar eclipse.

Time of maximum eclipse was just after 4am. The edge of earth's shadow made a soft, curved line on the surface of the moon.

This was our best photo of the eclipse. It was "digi-scoped" by holding our digital camera to the eyepiece of our field telescope (25x).



No filter needed to view this one...
