Here's a few shots I took from Crackneck Lookout Central Coast. It was great to catch up with the Pony Club boys up there. Thanks Arthur for a lend of the camera mount.:thumbsup:.

Nice widefield shots. The reflection across the water looks excellent.

Thanks for the comments Michael, Arthur, Allan Mike, Rick, and Orestis.
I had other shots with closer views but I decided to post the wide field shots over the ocean because it's probably not that common to get the eclipse that low over the ocean and for those who live inland it's a view they couldn't otherwise see. I think the first one was about 1/20 sec and early in the evening? The latter two were around 2.5sec -3sec exposures as I was after the effect of reflection on the water more than the exposure on the moon. Thanks for looking.
