Up at 04:30 EST this morning , bundling up in the -18.2C temperature, to image as much of the total lunar eclipse that we could.
We used a Canon DSLR with a 70-300mm zoom lens, at 300mm, and a manual exposure of 1/1000sec on a tripod.
The moon was tracked manually and then PIPP software was used to crop and centre the target as best as possible.
Here are the first and last still images of the event:
And this is a video compilation of approx 100 frames taken roughly 30 seconds apart, until the moon went in behind the trees:
And lastly, this is the last image taken with an exposure of 1 second.
