Enjoyed the Lunar Eclipse yesterday. It was spectacular.
Tried to take a video but with temperatures below zero - it felt like I was shooting a Scary Movie.
Here are some pics that I took with the timeline.
The next one to occur over this region is on December 10th - 2010.
If you are in India you can witness it tonight - Thursday night - here is the link to TOI

Wooow.. thats some photography! Which camera do u use? Vinod(My hubby) is into photography and planning to buy him a Digital SLR for his B'day. Any suggestions on what i should pick up?
BTW. even we saw some of the lunar eclipse last nite..Was beautiful.We are at VT this week , so its beyond freezing..Was too cold to stay out.
@kp
thank you..for the compliments...
dude anytime......email me and we can discuss that for sure - maybe we can meet preethi and tanya too :) she is in JC but not the vilage part......
and since i stay there it is clean so dont worry :)
@pavi!!!
thanks for liking the pictures....
well I took almost 40 of them and picked these..
i dont have a fancy camera - all i used was Canon PowerShot SD750..
It has got lots of different settings so I tinkered with them..... also on my blogs if you see the pictures they are from my old 3.2 megapixel camera.....(for me its just a hobby)
but if Vinod loves photography is into real photography - I think go with Nikon or Sony.....here check this website for reviews

and do post the pictures :)
and yes it was cold but i dressed up and sat for the whole hour :)only the fingers got blue - since could not click with the gloves
