some efforts from me. A little flare but thats down to lens construction. Forgot to say, these are on a 300mm lens at 30 second exposures, F9.0 and ISO 100, no tripod, just resting on the garden wall

I've been out there shivering to death and resting my camera on a makeshift 'tripod' consisting of wheelie bin and glass recycling box because I couldn't hold the flippin thing steady! Even so I couldn't keep it perfectly still - moral is prepare in advance with proper tripod! :D
Anyway here's the result. http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172962687 |

Heres an uncropped shot just to show how far I was from getting them to fill the frame.
Just flicked through all the shots, reckon I have about 20 usable ones, a lot are the same though just taken a few mins apart, trouble was I was keeping the ISO low for detail but ended up with exposures over 10sec, because the moon is moving they aren't sharp, I upped the ISO a bit then but there a bit too grainy for my liking. http://www.accringtonweb.com/forum/a...1&d=1172964783 |
Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
Awww WOW! K.S.H I knew you wouldn't disappoint, those are lovely :)

Most people had pieces of card with holes in and were reflecting the image on a piece of paper 9supposed to be the safest way of viewing it) but I had some glasses out of electric welders goggles, got a belting view through them, people were queuing up to borrow them for a look, should have charged them :D |

Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange

|
Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
On the day of that solar eclipse I had a piece of smokey glass to look at it through. We also got some free cardboard glasses with "eclipse burgers" from the butchers! :D Don't ask me what the eclipse burgers tasted like, I can't remember.
The moon here tonight didn't look very red at all and the sky was just its normal black. :( |

I could see the colour on the photo from your neck of the woods Katex. Obviously so different between Clayton and here and yet it's not that far away.

Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
The moons back now nearly just a little bit left to go and we got a full circle again.

Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
I couldn't be bothered staying out for the second half - I was too cold!!! :D
|
Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
I just looked through the window every so often!! I took my photos from outside though stood at the corner of the house.
|
Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
lol you should have seen me with the wheelie bin and box contraption outside. I'm sure people driving down Ormerod Street thought I was off my noodle.
|
Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
Great pictures people.:)
Thanks from someone who couldn't quite muster himself to get outside. (In fact I was in so much pain I was having a good cry when the eclipse happened, but will save the sympathy card for another time...when I might need it more.):D |
Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
Couldn't believe I was the only one on our road sat on front doorstep looking upwards .... felt like waking them all up. Neighbour to the left with two young boys who I know would have loved it, in bed; Neighbour to the right, still up, but light went out and telly obviously on in bedroom. How could they miss it !!
Would have gone to wake them up if I hadn't been in pyjamas, dressing gown, warm scruffy coat with big scarf, fag in one hand, glass of wine in t'other .. gotta 'keep up appearances, hasn't one?' .. :D Tell, ya' what though, anybody else got a stiff neck now ?... :( |

Re: Tonight the Lunar Eclipse will turn the sky bright Orange
Flashy, untick teh 'Tile' option
Nice piccys KSH mate. I went to bed, twas knackered re teh 10 sec limit, I did some reading and its reckoned you can get ~20-30 secs without teh 'movement' of teh moon upsetting the sharpness. Hnece myt 30 sec exposures at iso 100 |
