The Moon

Moon in Totality.

This image is one of a sequence of 210 snapshots taken over a 3½ hour period during the solstice eclipse of 2010. The sequence starts with exposures of one thousandth of a second at f/5.6 and slowly ramps up to two seconds at f/2 by mid-eclipse. The exposure was then slowly ramped down to a thousandth of a second at f/5.6 by the end of totality. All pictures were captured with a Meade 14-HyperStar and a Starlight M25C camera in Davie, Florida.
