Image via WikipediaI was watching the moon tonight and it was magnificent. It is too cold to stay outside too long but I really did try. I think I should have added a sturdy tripod to my Christmas list because the one I have now will not support the weight of my camera with the 500 ft lens x2 on it. Shucks. Occasionaly I can still catch a good shot of the moon but with the position of the moon it was impossible. :( My fingers are frozen and I can feel them burning as they thaw out. Happy Solstice to all!!! This is the first time we have had a lunar eclipse on the winter solstice since the 1600's (456 years!!!). I might post my blooper, epic fail photos in the morning but for tonight I wanted to say Happy Solstice, the shortest day of the year.
