Date

Equipment

Tamron 300mm f/2.8 lens on Pentax *ist-DS, on Amvona 858B tripod with Bogen 3047 head.

Description

The moon nears totality as seen from downtown Pasadena, California. The cupola of Pasadena City Hall is seen in the foreground. Regulus appears at upper left. I was fortunate to see the eclipse at all, as it had been raining intermittently all day. Scattered clouds during totality made the moon invisible at times.

A total Lunar eclipse from Patras, Greece. The cloudy weather few hours before the eclipse didn't discourage the members of astronomical society of Patras 'Orion' to observe the eclipse. Few minutes free of clouds were enough to take a glimpse of the eclipse and of course many photos!
