The Lunar Eclipse was well worth staying up for, but I guess it’s really not that much of a stretch for me as I am a night owl already.
at 2AM I went out to see where we were at. i was following along on the Chile space watch so I had a pretty good idea as Chile is just below us I think, but warmer.
for awhile it was just like a 1/2 moon, 1/4 moon thing, so my mind began to wander
I thought what the heck pattern is that on the Cira Center? It seriously looked like Oh No Mr Bill from SNL, but then I realized I was tired, cold and seeing things.
Back to the show
Oh wait I can see the art museum parking garage from the front of my building, that’s pretty cool to see a Frank Gehry so close.
We’re getting there…
Oh then I thought foreground shots would look nice.
If I wasn’t so lazy I would have crossed the street, laid on the ground and had the art museum in the foreground.
I was getting artsy here, probably not though, huh?
Goose bump time
This was shot with a flash
This was without a flash
So worth it:-) The End and I went to bed. Well first I did this blog entry.

I heard from a friend, if you don't use a flash, you can't see the mountains on the moon.
Wow, it was really beautiful! I missed it so these picks really made me feel like I was there. Thanks for sharing, it's much appreciated!

Beautiful Shots. Thanks for sharing.
nice shots. Not sure if your flash decision is needed. pretty sure your flash isn't reaching the surface of the moon. nice shots anyway..
