Lunar eclipse

Lunar Eclipse on March, 4th. Picture taken with a 8" Meade LX90 and a Canon EOS 400D.

Exposure time: 8 seconds, aperture: f/10, focal length: 2000 mm

 

As no field flattener was used, and the EOS 400D's crop factor is 1.6, the picture had to be stitched together from 2 photos. I think it's time for a full-format sensor camera ;)
