Lunar eclipse photos from Vancouver

In Vancouver, the clouds cleared just long enough for some beautiful views of the lunar eclipse. I got some nice pictures (and so did my dad):

Lunar eclipse - 24 Lunar eclipse - 01 Lunar eclipse - 02 Lunar eclipse - 03 Lunar eclipse - 04 Lunar eclipse - 05 Lunar eclipse - 06 Lunar eclipse - 07 Lunar eclipse - 08 Lunar eclipse - 09 Lunar eclipse - 10 Lunar eclipse - 11 Lunar eclipse - 12 Lunar eclipse - 13 Lunar eclipse - 14 Lunar eclipse - 15 Lunar eclipse - 16 Lunar eclipse - 17 Lunar eclipse - 18 Lunar eclipse - 19 Moon and clouds Lunar eclipse - 20 Lunar eclipse - 21 Lunar eclipse - 22 Lunar eclipse - 23 Limb Moon and Saturn Lunar eclipse - 25 Lunar eclipse - 26 Lunar eclipse - 27 Lunar eclipse - 28 Lunar eclipse - 29 Lunar eclipse - 30 Lunar eclipse - 31 Lunar eclipse - 32 Lunar eclipse - 33 Lunar eclipse - 34 Lunar eclipse - 35 Lunar eclipse - 36 Lunar eclipse - 37 Moon and tree Lunar eclipse - 38 Lunar eclipse - 39 Lunar eclipse - 40 Lunar eclipse - 41 Lunar eclipse - 42

Mine were taken with a Nikon D50 camera on a tripod, and attached to a Sigma/Quantaray 70-210 mm zoom lens set at f/5.6, ISO 800, exposures generally between a half-second and two seconds. My dad took his with a Canon Digital Rebel XT attached to a Celestron C90 reflector telescope on a tripod, acting as a 1000 mm f/11 lens, with similar exposure times and ISO settings.

Love the layout. Happily, I got to see the eclipse after a brief bout with low lying clouds here in Seattle.

Look forward to seeing you at Northern Voice.

Cheers,
