Total lunar eclipse on 8-9.Nov 2003


The eclipse was a lovely sight. The southern rim was quite light during the whole total phase, due to the moons path through the southern part of the shadow. During the eclipse, the stars and the milkyway made a nice background to the moon. The weather conditions were excellent, the following picture are taken with a Canon D60 on a Vixen R200SS Newton reflector.
