Total Lunar Eclipse
Taken by Mark Seibold on April 4, 2015 @ Total Lunar Eclipse April 4th 2015, from the Vista House at Crown Point, Columbia Gorge Oregon. Through shifting fog and clouds, I strained past totality obscured by clouds, finally at 5:23 ~ 5:29 AM PDT, using a Sony NEX5 it stock 18~55mm lens at 18mm and through a 10.1 inch Coulter Odyssey f/4.5 Newtonian-Dobsonian with a 32mm Super Plossl eyepiece. A final post process in Adobe Creative Cloud, two 180 degree panoramas with the moon composite from the eyepiece of the Dobsonian, also a natural sky view showing the moon low in the southwest, and after the eclipse ended in dawns early light, another panorama. -Mark Seibold, Artist-Astronomer, Portland-Sandy Oregon

Thanks Noeleen

Of course I do this for aesthetic fun, but it is actually a real image through my telescope composited over the panorama. The actual size image of the moon in the sky is also there at the far left of this frame as it appeared to come out of the clouds now and then.
