 Lucky you! We're heavily occluded and likely to remain so.

		| | Nope.. no moon this side of town |

		| | Clouds cleared, in total eclipse now, proved extremely challenging to shoot. Hoping I got a least a few keepers. |

		| | Perfect, clear sky, moon started to eclipse and then the clouds came in... Haven't looked but I'm pretty sure I didn't get anything good |

 Ha! That would be a first! Much rarer even than the eclipse!

		| | I thought it was a 48 hour challenge, but the info shows it as a 7 day one.

		| | Well, it's not the best picture of the moon ever taken, but it's submitted. Now the week long wait for our 48 hour challenge to enter voting. |

		| | The weather cooperated here in S W Florida.  A cloud bank moved in and covered the Moon just as it was coming out of the shadow and about 1/8 bright. |

		| | I would LOVE to enter it but I am not a member,  first time shooting such a moon which was so dark, I ended up using 
 F11
 ISO 100
 15" long exposure shutter speed
 
 I am happy they just turned out somewhat.. I wish I had a 500-1000mm lens thou
 
 Good luck to the participants, I am sure your shots will be better than mine :-))

		| | I was out there from 2:30 - 3:15 AM. Mine turned out too dark or to blurry. I can't enter any of them.    :-( |

 We got a break in the clouds at 3 AM, I got a shot from the deck, barefoot, in 45 mph winds. Nothing special, but it's in.

		| | what's the scoop - is this due tonight or in 5 days? | 
 | 
		
			|  | 04/15/2014 08:36:24 PM · #45 | 
		| | I assume in 5 days. But I should probably get mine in just in case. 
 He hasn't seemed to shorten the time (too often) when it gets posted long...

			|  | 04/15/2014 08:41:07 PM · #46 | 
		| | Should be deadline tonight, but it would be hard to counteract the announcement. 
 Okay if it's later.  My entry has been submitted.
