12-21, Lunar Eclipse


Yes, I was the crazy lady standing out in the front lawn in her robe at 3 AM in 20 degree weather watching the lunar eclipse.  I was the ONLY one in my neighborhood doing that.  I guess for that I am thankful or else I would have been pretty embarrassed standing there in my robe.  =)  This is the image I was able to capture.  Not too bad for a lens that's 1/3 the size of the one needed for something like this.  It was definitely a 'been there done that' moment since the last winter solstice full moon eclipse was in 1638 and the next one is slated for 2094. I'd say it was worth it!
