Remind HN: There's a lunar eclipse right now
Starts at 6:06am Pacific Time. Anyone west of the Rockies to about Hawaii should be able to see it.
- mark_l_watson 15y agoMy wife and I got up early, drove 1 block for an unobstructed view: https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/117612439870300277560/albums/5684516764381498865 https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/117612439870300277560/alb... I took three pictures. My T2i camera made the pictures look like they were taken in daylight so I edited them making them dimmer, and then dimmer with high contrast. The dimmed high contrast pictures look like the eclipse as seen with the naked eye.
- vinhboy 15y agoyou're telling me those pictures were taken at night? wow, thats hard to believe.
- orijing 15y agoYes, during the Lunar eclipse, the sun is on the other side of the planet. It's like [sun] [earth]* [moon] in a straight line. (The * is where the photographer who sees the moon is)
- mapster 15y agovery nice. The moon must have been too low in the sky for me to find. I was wishing I was in Arizona, where I never missed such events. Glad to see your pics of the eclipse from that majestic landscape.
- pknerd 15y agoI am in Pakistan. It's lovely and clear dark sky here and I and wife witnessed partial lunar eclipse here.
