Lunar Eclipse

Last night we went out to watch the lunar eclipse from southern Georgia. I took this photo when the eclipse was about 3/4 way. Interesting how the shaded part of the moon had an orange hue. It was pretty spectacular. Photographed with my Canon Mark II and Canon 500 mm IS lens.

Wow!
Ma Nature didn't pull back the sky curtain till after it was all finished here in western South Dakota, so we missed a view like that.
