Total Lunar Eclipse 2003

Total Lunar Eclipse 2003

On May 15th, 2003 another total lunar eclipse was visible from North America. The images below were taken from the roof of Building 2 at Black Hawk College using a Nikon CoolPix 950 digital camera in conjunction with an 8 inch Meade Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope with a 40mm eyepiece. Viewing conditions were excellent. I began viewing just before totality at about 9:30 p.m.
