Lunar Eclipse

I know this is long overdue but there was a lunar eclipse recently in my university. It happened September 4th around 2am to 5am. I was so reluctant to sacrifise my sleep but I was thinking of my wonderful imaginary readers that I thought, "What the heck! What is a few hours of lost sleep compared to the joy of my imaginary readers right?"

See how great I am?

Well.. it was also more towards thinking that this would be my last time seeing a lunar eclipse if the thing about it appearing once in a 1000 years is true.

The start of the adventure


Slowly..

Beautiful right?

Uh-Oh.. the moon is disappearing!


Oooh.. Note the color change?


I love this!

Sorry guys.. this is the end of it.

I din stay up till 5 am so you will notice that the pictures only go one way. It climaxes but doesn't go down! Haha.. But its almost the same right? You just put the pictures the other way around.

You know what I mean.

The process was so slow it was torturing. The last time I saw an eclipse was like just 30 minutes. If you din pay close attention, you would miss it. Maybe it was because it was the sun eclipse but still.. This was sooooo... s...l...o...w....!!!!

By the way, these pictures were taken by my Canon S5IS camera. Great shots right? Though I know it needs lots of improvements. The noise is terrible in this. But goodness gracious me! My hands were absolutely exhausted after it. Had to hold so still!!! Din even dare to breath!

See what kind of lengths I go for you guys! Visit me more often ah! Haha..

Muarx!
