Larry,
Those are very nice images!
I've been woken up by my daughter at 4:40am local time, but at that point
I didn't recall about the eclipse, and didn't try to look out of the
window... :-(
For others: sorry about the smoke-screen over your front-row seats. :-)

Well, just in case: there will be a lunar eclipse tonight.
As far as I understand the chart, US West Coast, Austalia and New
Zealand got the "best seats" for the spectacle.

I hope some PDMLers might benefit from this info.
Thanks. It was already on my todo list. I've posted a few so far.

The astrotracer really rocked the red moon. As to be expected I kept
wishing my bigma were longer and faster though. Tight crops are 1048
pixels on a side.
