Dave Williams (sleepydawg) > Here we go, exposure was better, and the shadow started creeping across the face of the moon.  Wow!
Dave Williams (sleepydawg) > I tried again with a full second exposure, but I couldn't get a steady shot.  The clouds rolled in before I had a chance to go inside and get the tripod and set it up.  I got nothing else for the rest of the night, too many clouds.  I guess I'll know what to do if I ever see another eclipse...
