The disappearance of the Moon into the Earth's shadow step by step. Images made with a 10 minutes interval from 20:20 until 23:20 UT. All images made with a 250mm Newton and a Konika Minolta Dynax 5D DSLR with an exposure time of 1/1000 seconds (200ASA) for the partial phase and 6 seconds (200ASA)for totality. At 23:15, just before maximum eclipse, the clouds rolled in and the last image I could make was at maximum eclipse. See picture below, image is made at 200ASA at an exposure time of 8 seconds. |
