So I was hoping to get some great shots of this lunar eclipse from just east of Hoosier Pass yesterday morning to hopefully frame the moon between North Star and Quandary but the clouds completely covered any view of the moon literally minutes before the eclipse took place...severely disappointed. I did notice about 15 people camped out just over Wilkerson Pass when we were on our way back to the Springs with some pretty advanced star tracker scopes and such but that cloud cover was relentless.

Wow. =D> Does he use software? The moon often washes out the stars, though obviously it's not as bright during an eclipse.
