Total lunar eclipse tonight

Postby fenger on Tue Aug 28, 2007 6:26 pm

The moon's surface will darken as the earth's shadow creeps across it to create a partial eclipse from just before 7pm (AEST), with the total eclipse visible one hour later.

Worth shooting? Have never done this before. Any tips?
Does the moon move considerably for long exposure?

Sorry, but this is the fourth thread on this topic so I've locked it. A quick search will find the other threads (eg I entered Lunar And Eclipse).

Please continue discussion in one of the other threads (eg THIS ONE) that way everything ends up in one place.
