lunar eclipse - multicoloured moon by lbmcshutter

lunar eclipse - multicoloured moon

I woke up at about 2am and decided to get up and watch the eclipse instead of the really desirable roll over and get more sleep.
Unfortunately heavy cloud cover mean I missed a lot of it, quickly snapping a few shots between cloudy periods, never quite getting camera settings right. I have some great cloud over the moon shots, but decided to post this one as I loved the different colours. At this point most of the moon was in shadow.
Wonderful capture of the "luna rossa" as it's called in Italy...

Wow, I'm impressed that you captured it! It's beautiful! It wasn't to be seen in my area, just clouds and rain. :-(

Very nice. We've been told on the news to keep an eye out, but London (or at least my part) is under cloud at the moment. So thanks for sharing!

I remember trying to shoot a lunar eclipse in 2009, I stayed up till almost 4am and snapped my shutter over 500 times and came away with zilch!
