Lunar eclipses are fantastic to experience and, fortunately, they are a whole lot easier to observe than their solar counterparts.
Unlike solar eclipses, you don't need to be in a specific place to see them -- so long as you can see the moon then you can enjoy the eclipse. Also unlike solar eclipses, you don't need any special equipment to observe them.
Well, as luck would have it, in just a few hours, there will be a lunar eclipse for you to feast your eyes on. It takes place on Dec. 10, but if you miss it, the next one isn't until 2014!

BACKSTORY:
Today I completely forgot about the lunar eclipse and was reminded at work. Lucky for me I bring my camera everywhere I go, unforunately I only had my prime 50mm lens with me. Needless to say, this is when you have to start getting clever. I had to ask myself "What shot can I possibly get with a prime lens of an object that's thousands of miles away and have it still look good?"
These shots (1 of 3) were what I came up with. I used the same composition in all three just to make sure I got the shot right. I then left for home and grabbed my 18-200 to take more while it was still out.
In the end, I still don't have the proper equipment to get a closeup shot of the moon, I'll leave that to the other millions of cliche shots of the moon that other professionals have taken

Total Eclipse 2017. Camping in Eastern Oregon to try to get away from the crowds. More around than I expected, but not as many as I had feared. The exact location was impossible to get to without 4x4, although some tried, and failed, while we watched.
One of the best camping spots I've had in a while.
