More Lunar Eclipse from last night

Hi all

I nearly gave up on this one due to the terrible Brisbane weather - but just as I was heading off to bed I saw the Moon through the toilet window - I set up in record time!
I was wrapped to see and take images of the Full, Penumbral, Partial and Total eclipse!!!!
The images as so so but the recent practise with the set up made capturing lots of images quite easy - LX90, FR and Nikon D3100.
A great night early morning!!!!

Hi Matt

Thanks for the views, the montage is just beautiful and very effectively communicates the majesty and drama of this event. I retired when it was still cloudy, thus missing the live views so thanks for the memories!

Cheers

Dennis
