Hey all.

Here's my take on the April 15th lunar eclipse, as seen from the Eureka Skydeck.

Something I noticed during post processing was what appears to be a satellite transit across the face of the totally eclipsed moon (astronomy app I use when out observing says the Suzaku X-ray observatory was in the vicinity of the moon at the time the images were taken).

Images were taken with a Nikon D3000 with 55-300mm lens
