Liveblogging the 2010 North American Winter Solstice Lunar Eclipse. :D Lat 39 N, Long 76 W
Some notes of art: to follow the everybody-can-to-it theme of this community, these pictures were all taken in a suburban yard with a cheap EasyShare digital camera and no extra equipment. ...as a result, though, these images are really not a very good equivalent of what was visible through the naked eye - I had very limited ability to adjust exposure times and focal depth, so the short-exposure shots are far too dimmed out ( you could see a disc for almost the whole course of the eclipse) and the long-exposure shots are far too bright ( the slivers, especially, look much bigger in the photos than they did through eyes.) And, of course, in general it's much less sharp and I lost detail. But I am not going to say they aren't accurate, because a creature with eyes like an EasyShare camera would have seen pretty much this. :P
