Partial Lunar Eclipse, 26 June 2010


Eclipsed Moonset

The still partially eclipsed moon set for me in southern California not long after the point of maximum eclipse, so I was not able to see all of the event, but it did make a nice moonset/eclipse photo opportunity. Fortunately the sky was clear down to the horizon (see the wide shot)!
