[justin-branam]

[2005GLI]

dam thats the second one in like 6 months or so.

[Sonic Infidel]

Here's some more information on it, specifically a map of visibility.

http://blog.wired.com/wiredscience/2008/02/perfect-viewing.html

[zagiace]

Now I need dark skies and a 500mm.
oh, and time.
Hope I don't miss it.

[justin-branam]

just bumping this so no one misses it!

[350D_Noob]

15 minutes til it starts!

[yankees3791]

this post is for all of the lunar eclipse shots you guys take tonight...good luck!

[Badger49456]

Here's two I just grabbed tonight, one of the full moon and one of the partial eclipse, with my Sigma 18-200 OS:

[Tyger]

awesome shots...got a few myself but I'll wait until it's done to post.

[lavable]

fantastic!!

I just tried a shot too.

what settings did you use, or would you recommend?

[Badger49456]

I like to shoot at 1/160 and f/11 at ISO 100. Using a remote release and mirror-lock up has really improved my shots, too. Before, without the remote release, I noticed some CA around the edges... now, that's all gone and shots are always sharp. Have fun tonight guys... total eclipse is at 10:01 p.m. EST!

[fotodan]

I hope you all get some good shots. I just looked outside, clouds and rain..:cry:

[serverpimp]

Clouds rolled in just as it started. :(

[Calzinger]

I've been running between my computer and my camera, and now I'm off to the camera again. Total eclipse should occur in less than thirty minutes.

[justin-branam]

freaking clouds

[justin-branam]

I hope you all get some good shots. I just looked outside, clouds and rain..:cry:


i feel your pain

[SwiftFootTim]

I'm in a very cold climate and I'm getting some haze on the light side of the exlipse, anything to do?

[drdragon666]

well its 2.42am and all i have is cloud here in the south east uk ...... not good

[AndreaBFS]

What settings are you guys using for shots of this?

[Sickness]

My attempt, not much on a 28-80 crop body.

[Sickness]

http://img102.imageshack.us/img102/6820/lunarxh7.jpg

Best I could do with 80mm on a crop body.

[FlyingPhotog]

Denied here in central Arizona... Solid overcast.

[Calzinger]

I'ma go back in about ten minutes to catch the total eclipse. It was really cloudy earlier which produced some halos around the moon, but nothing a bit of CS3 couldn't fix. I've been bracketing everything. I'll post 'em when I'm finished with all of my shots, don't want to miss anything.

Things look to be clearing up, will report back soon.

[franklinn]

I wanted to rent a badass 300mm L for tonight... but got caught up in my other errands :(

though just looking at it is worthwhile in itself.

[jptsr1]

Denied here in central Arizona... Solid overcast.

same here in Oakland.

[poorARTstudent85]

i already posted mine...

http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=457204

[bakerbranded]

Its so clear here now, its so amazing, I just wished I owned my camera now to be able to get a chance to get a shot. But its close to 3/4 Red.

[JC4]

This was my best opening, still total overcast just a thin spot in the clouds. They rolled in heavy after this shot.

[bakerbranded]

This was my best opening, still totally hazy. The clouds rolled in very heavy after this attempt, just prior to full eclipse.

Ours now looks like your photo but with clear sky.

[illusionest]

Hey everyone!!

im sure many of us took pictures of the awesome lunar eclipse tonight.
So post them here! share! :D


edit: here's mine!

[Captain Mantastic]

got some... it is -5 out right now.. i couldn't stand it any longer...but now flickr isnt letting me upload pics.. bah!

[Calzinger]

Just finished shooting, unloading everything to the computer. It's times like these that I really wish I had a tripod...or even a lens with IS...sounds impossible doesn't it? Oyy :(

[R. Lawrence]

Here's my first shot ... taken just before totality began.

Spring Grove, PA

[aussieskier]

Alrighty... Here is one of mine, I am waiting a little longer to try again.

30d + 300mm f/4 L ISO 1600 F4 1/6

It is alright, might be better after a little work
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v73/Aussieskier/RB-0574-2.jpg

[Mark_Cohran]

Still shooting. Don't know if I'll get anything worth posting though.

[Cliqtography]

I have the worst telephoto lens, i never have a need for it, but this was an exception


http://cliqthisphoto.com/pics/IMG_0698a.jpg

[SuzyView]

I just came in with camera & lens in plastic bags. It's 27 degrees outside and I've been out there for 2 hours. :) All in the name of posting the pictures. What is wrong with me?

Sweet, looks like we got lucky with the weather here today. Clear skies, Portland, Winter?! CRAZY :lol:

[jonnythan]

Longest lens I own right now is my 50mm f/1.8, LOL

Neat pic though I think.

Aussie, that's awesome.

[yankees3791]

hope you guys got some good shots...i got some pretty good ones with my 70-200mm f/4L on a tripod that I will post tomorrow...I got to do some cropping though, because my lens is nowhere long enough lol :rolleyes:

Your a hardened photographer!! :lol: (Or nuts like the rest of us, but I prefer to think of myself the other way :-D.)

[MEP]

I'm waiting for one more outing in the next five minutes and then I'm uploading mine. They look good on the LCD. :) We'll see...

That first one is great!

[Calzinger]

Oyy, ultimate failure for me...
I tried my best and this is what I came up with.

No tripod, No IS
70-200 f/2.8L + 1.4xTC, 280mm, f/4.0, 1/15", ISO 1600

[Eclyps19]

lol all of mine are turning out so bad :)

but there isn't a cloud in the sky in michigan, so it's at least a good sight

[jonnythan]

Calzinger, turn the ISO down to 200, decrease the aperture to f/8 and increase the shutter speed to 4 seconds or so and it should look much better.

Use the timer!

[Hattrik21]

Mines not that great but what can you expect from a newbie. :)

Can you read my entire post please? Then I'd like to see you take a 4" shot handheld...

Just about to check my first set. I did the bulb thing while I let the moon move a little. The amount of noise in space...wow. :lol:

lovely sharpness

[underexposed]

damn...you guys are getting some nice shots w/o tripod. Where are you guys taking the photos from? my friend and i tried, but we get too much light pollution.

[skipper34]

Canon 20d, Zuiko 350 f2.8 manual focus, 1.4 TC

[MagentaJoe]

This is the best I could get. Lots of light pollution around me in the middle of the city. The only thing that saved it is the cold cold weather reducing the water vapour. Can't wait to see some from the super telephoto lenses + stack teleconverters. I know they're coming.

Fully eclipsed:

All shots were with a 40D, 400/2.8, and 2X teleconverter. Exposure varied from 1/1600, f/6.3, & ISO 400 to 1/6 sec, f/5.6 at ISO 3200.

Handheld 5D with 70-200 2.8 IS about 10 minutes ago.

It was really clear here in Boston, I had a great view from my apartment window overlooking Beacon St. in Brookline.

I got all setup...

Clouds roll in. I saw the very beginning... Put fiancee to bed. Nothing!

Ok. My first effort at shooting moons.... Well these type anyway :p

[nicksan]

Was going home looking forward to taking some shots when I got robbed right by my house. (I am OK, they got my cell phone from my pocket while they were tackling to the ground, but that's about all they got cuz I managed to escape)

That kinda put a damper on my evening...however I decided to go to the backyard and shoot pics of the eclipse for some much needed distraction.

Only managed this...

http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c379/sbastian/IMG_9264_halfmoon.jpg

The only shot that came out with the 40D, 1.4x, 70-200 f4. Trees everywhere and focus was impossible AF, so I had to switch to MF. But it's about as good as it gets when the tripod won't stay still while I'm shaking. Love the pictures posted. Everyone did a great job.

[killerbab]

well... time to invest in some big telephoto lens. That will be my excuse for the wife.

"See honey, this is what i could have shot??"

Great pics everyone!

[dinanm3atl]

Robbed... Sorry to hear that. One person on the BMW forums was robbed at gun point in his garage!

Ohh dang, never thought about exposing for the bright part, I was so obsessed with the red :(. As you can tell from these, I am shooting to get a wallpaper out of one of these :p.

Something like this is what I'm going for, but dang, sure wish that I had a tele or two tonight.

My feeble attempt. Hoping the second round is better. Can't believe I'm just sitting out here waiting...although it seems the clouds have other plans.

[MEP]

So I learned tonight that I need to get that remote shutter release that I've been putting off...

[blindz24]

Yes the 'star' on the left is Saturn. Nice shot guys, so far I've taken 82 shots and no good claer ones yet :( Havin a hard time tonight its just too bloody cold lol Teleconverter is also bein a jerk to me tonight just doesn't wanna cooperate lol :(

Nice shots everyone.. I just saw it after I got off of astronomy class. My professor was telling us to go see it.

[amyandmark3]

I did these hand held with my 5D and 70-300IS. I'm sick and it's pretty cold out here, so I didn't want to make the effort to lug out the tripod...best I could do hand held.. :)

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3243/2280331781_82769255c7_o.png

[monokrome]

This was the best I got, it's 25 degrees outside. 300mm f/4 with 1.4x on 40D for reach. Tried with MLU as well as 2 sec shutter delay at 1sec, 3 sec and 5 sec. Just too much shaking going on.

27 degrees??? I'd be in shorts and a tee shirt. I went out for an hour total and its minus 12...WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME???? I've been in for about 1/2 hour and I still have the chills. Here are a couple of my shots...not too pleased but....

I like your framing treatment. Makes me nostalgic for 35mm transparency.
Especially the "hand written" font. What font is that by the way?

Thanks, it's Jenkins V2.0. I've downloaded so many fonts it's not funny. I'm still getting into the framing thing, starting to really experiment.

Everyone with very nice shots.
Here's my attempt. 300mm with 1.4x TC. ISO200, 2sec, f/4

[Oneslowz28]

Spent 3 hours out in the cold snapping a pic every 10 min only for it to cloud up right before the moon began to come back out. Oh well heres what I got anyway. Click the link for a larger image.

A couple of mine.
70-200 + 1.4x on 20D for extra reach. Should convince the hubby I need a 400mm ;)

[SabRhund]

Yay! I've never photographed an eclipse before. Man it was cold.

[djeuch]

Posted in another thread, but here's my attempts. Last is an animated GIF.

Shooting with a 40D, 70-200mm f/2.8L IS and a Canon 1.4xTC.

Conclusion? Not enough reach. I have to do all 100% crops. Need a 2x AND 500mm or more... I almost rented them just for this occasion!

Here's my "best" shots out of my own bunch. URL preceeding the image is to the CR2 RAW file if anyone wants to play with them:

100% crops:

http://www.jeuch.com/pics/2008/2008-02-20/nomark/IMG_5435.JPG

100% crop, noise reduction (unfortunately gets a little soft):

Sized down to 200x200 from 100% crop (475x475) makes it look much better:

Resized and converted to animated GIF. I like how it turned out in the end!

Each shot is approximately 10 minutes apart.

My shutter speed was way too slow on 3&4 but hey, it happens...

[apologeticlies]

Sweet picture of Saturn!!!

[GlenviewJimbo]

Haven't had much time to process but 350xt at prime on a 80mm f/6 telescope. Hope to have better once I combine a few.

[scottcolbath]

That's an awesome effect. Nice pic.

No effect. Just spot metering based off an area above the moon. f/8.0 at 3.2 seconds. ISO 800.

That picture of Saturn is pretty rocking! I like the others too - amazing detail.

Thanks, it's Jenkins V2.0. I've downloaded so many fonts it's not funny. I'm still getting into the framing thing, starting to really experiment.

Thanks...

Sorry for quality.. using an 18-50mm 'cause I don't own a telephoto. Ironic, because I work at an astronomy shop and had to stay late to host a big eclipse party the store held.
Despite awful clouds, horrendous light pollution from parking lot lights, and cold wind.. someone gave me a free tripod (cheap quality, but better than none!) and let me borrow a.. 35-200mm? It wasn't sharp at all so I kept to my Sigma.

100-400L at ISO 800. My first attempt at out-of-this-world subjects...

[2005GLI]
