Compare this eclipse, on May 16, 2003 to the previous eclipse photo, taken a few minutes earlier. The moon has progressed through the earth's shadow, and the darkest part is now farther to the right. This photo was taken with an 8-inch Newtonian and a Nikon Coolpix 5700 using a Scopetronix 25mm eyepiece, designed especially for digital point and shoot cameras.
