Date taken: Sept 08th 2006 (local time)
Description: Partial lunar eclipse animation
Equipment: Canon 350D prime focus @ 80mm f/7.5 refractor , fixed tripod.

I was going to upload my composite image (http://www.singastro.org/files/gerhana2_483.jpg) of the eclipse, but then I thought, why not the whole event? (well, most of the event), minus the huge imaginary spaceship :P

14 frames were taken randomly over the 2hrs period and unfortunatelly all of the frames suffered image rotation since I forgot to lock my focuser rotator (oopsie). I had to fix each frames individually prior to the animation alignment, and i think the result turned pretty well.

btw, i forgot to include the year 2006 on the pic's title info :oops: , can someone fixed it for me pls.

thanks, and clear skies,

Jefferson Teng

Hi Boothee,

Very nice! If you have the full-resolution picture on a photo-sharing site somewhere, go ahead and post the link. I'm sure people would like to see it full resolution as well.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for your comments!

I processed only base on a small picture as you limit the size on announcement. But I quickly reprocess the picture with bigger resolution and post on a site as you suggested.

I'm happy to share my bigger resolution picture to you all. Here is the link.

The Moon

Post by hansgalaxy »

One of my first attempt on the moon!

Using my Fuji S5000 cam and point direct to the eye piece of a Celestron C8 telescope to compose this image.

This is a kinda wide angle shot of the moon behind the clouds. Don't remember when exactly it was taken. Using a Canon A75, 3x zoom.
