So, I didn't stay up all night photographing the eclipse this time, but now I wish I had with the increased resolution of the 5D MK II. Since I don't have any new images I'll share this shot of the moon in total eclipse I took on Aug 28, 2007. The star field was added from a different image to add depth and context.
My most popular image from the 2007 lunar event, "Lunar Eclipse Over Mt. Shasta", can be seen in my photostream. It was part of an exhibit in the Smithsonian.
This photo was taken on August 28, 2007 using a Canon EOS 5D.

It seems a bit like cheating (star field from somewhere else), but the end result is awesome!

Cool composition. I really like the stars as the background, makes it look so much more interesting. I did stay up last night to photography the eclipse. It was cold and cloudy here in San Francisco bay, but luckily there were moments of clear sky. Check out my photo stream if you get a chance.

Hi Sean.
Nice composite. Striking image.
I was out last night trying to get a shot through and between cloud cover here near Mount Hood. It was hard to focus on it and then the thin cloud cover softened the focus that I was able to achieve... but I got one. : )
Nice work!

Awesome. That's a heck of a zoom! I missed the recent one - gutted we had cloud, but love your image of the 2007 one. Will have to wait for the next one!

Incredible shot. Really makes me wish it hadn't been cloudy here so I could have had a glimpse at it.

Not really that I am super jealous of this shot, but this is really fantastic work. Clouds ruined mine.
