Solstice Total Lunar Eclipse

Description

Captured the Lunar Eclipse from early Wednesday morning, between midnight and around 2am. It was quite a sight, as I have never spent much time watching lunar eclipses in the past, and have never photographed them.

Numerous exposures were taken using my Canon EF 100-400mm L series lens and Canon Rebel XSi (450D), at 400mm and an aperture of f/5.6. Exposure times varied between 1/60th of a second through about 1 second as the luminance of the moon changed over the duration of th eclipse through totality. The shots here were 1/25, 1/4, 1/2, and 0.8 seconds, successively. ISO was set to 100, 200, 800, and 800, successively, to prevent blurring via motion, and keep shutter times as low as possible.
