Lunar Eclipse

A friend of mine took a series of photos of the recent lunar eclipse, as seen from Brisbane. They're not serious astrophotography, but for someone like me who doesn't have much of a view of the sky any more, they were nice to see. (I miss my telescope).

I particularly like the bright exposure of the final crescent, and again when it re-emerges. It's also a nice example of how even the simplest of telescopic lenses is able to see the Galilean moons.

I recommend using the "Slideshow" view, to watch the progression of the full-size photos.
