Lunar Eclipse Photos from Abbotsford, BC

| Comments

The clouds cleared just in time for me to see the lunar eclipse tonight. I've posted the pictures to my newly created Flickr account, yes I know it took me forever to break down and create one. Enjoy, follow the prompts for the larger versions. I used a Nikon DX40 with a Nikkor 18-135mm lens. For the close-up I had an aperture of f5.6 and shutter speed of 18 seconds. For the wide-angle I had an aperture of f4 and shutter speed of 30 seconds. For the background light shot I had an aperture of f3.5 and shutter speed of 18 seconds. I'm very much an amateur photographer and still learning and wish I had more lenses.

PS For some reason if click in the photo to get it larger Flickr isn't working. So you can visit the Lunar Eclipse large format slideshow by clicking here.

And you can zoom into the Moon on this one.
