So we missed last night's lunar eclipse here in the Phoenix area because a brief storm system moved through. But I did catch the August event and thought I'd share one of my composite shots. :D

I basically took a photo every few minutes from just before it began until well after the moon was out of the Earth's umbral shadow (post eclipse).

A few of the individual shots here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/robotography/sets/72157601762418376/)

those shots are very cool-thanks for sharing! I got to see the most current one live so to speak but not in all the stages, very awe inspiring.

I was able to watch the eclipse the other night. Your pics of the one in August are great!

It was a good eclipse! I was missing my 400mm lens as 300mm just isn't close as I'd like to be. lesson learned.
Your composite is great! I thought of doing the same thing but just enjoyed the show as it was with my daughter and her friend running laps around hunting ghosts.
