Total Lunar Eclipse Summary

Greetings:

During the early morning of December 21st 2010, thanks to a near perfect night time sky. I decided to observe the total lunar eclipse over North America. In order to share the experience, I've taken pictures of the moon transitioning through several stage. Using a digital camera with a generous optical zoom lens, the pictures still observes the moon from a distance even as the zoom setting is maximized. For that, please accept my apologies ahead of time for the inconsistency in the image quality. Because I was operating at the end of my camera's zoom lens and most of the pictures were taken on a very slow twilight setting, a quantity of the shots have resulted as blurry.

While I've taken over 100 images, the images being shared in this blog represents some of the better and most significant shots.

Thank you for viewing and I sincerely wish these shots of the total lunar eclipse will be appreciated.
