The Eclipse


The Eclipse, originally uploaded by FlickPics88.

Of course, I HAD to try and get a picture of the eclipse tonight. Trouble is that the moon moves pretty fast. By the time the shutter closes, it's already in a different spot then when the shutter opened. I was able to get a reasonable shot by balancing the shutter open time. See what you think... I like the sun burst looking crater on the lower right side.

Awesome shot! The boys and I sat in the backyard under a sleeping bag to enjoy the show. Ian suggested we take a picture, but I knew better than to try. I assured him Uncle David would capture it for him. Thanks for proving me right! : )
