Partial Lunar Eclipse - 2012 JUN 04

Cumming, IA (Just south of WDM)

Images of the Partial Lunar Eclipse in the morning hours of June 04, sequenced from upper left to right, and continuing down the subsequent rows. Exposures were taken every 5 minutes, and actually 3 images were left off of the beginning which began with the penumbral phase, and proceeding a few minutes shy of mid-eclipse as the moon set and the Sun rose. Some of the penumbral phase is difficult to detect for a while, and fortunately the eclipse appears as eclipsed as it can be, just not at mid-eclipse.

Nikon D300
1/5s f/11.0 at 1200.0mm full exif
