    Total Lunar ecclipse.

    Hi, Last night the lunar eclipse was visible from my town - guwahati (26° 11'N, 91° 44'E). Though initially there were apprehensions that clouds would play spoilsport, I could get clear snaps of the event. Later on the clouds cleared up and we had a glorius full moon. The first photograph was taken moments before the total ecclipse. The second during the eclipse and the third after the moon was back in full glory. I also gave a photograph of the location under full moon. This was my first experience at shooting the moon. C&C will be appreciated.

    The previous photo was moments before total eclipse. This one was during total eclipse.

    I had a blast shooting the ecclipse and followed it with a spin of Floyd's DSOTM - "The Lunatic is on the grass".

    Hi,Sugata.
    You were lucky to have had a clear sky. I was not, here in Thiruvananthapuram. Dark clouds, occassionally turning thin, gave a peep.
    Well, everything under the sun was in tune, but the moon was eclipsed ...

    I am sorry to hear about the clouds playing spoilsport. We were lucky we could shoot between drifting clouds.
    Cheers!! and have a good day.
