->> Andrew, I posted my shot on my member page, but there's really no need to look at it. It looks almost identical to yours. It looks like we even started at the same time.

I had to shoot a basketball game last night and by the time I got finished the eclipse had already started. When I showed someone in the newsroom your sequence she asked if you were at the same game.

->> This was my first eclipse too. The moon didn't rise here until after the eclipse had begun so I shot it from half to half, took two hours. Here's a link to the composite I made of 11 frames from that night on my blog. Click the pic to see it in greater detail.

->> I got out and shot a few frames, but nothing as good as what you guys posted - I only got shots at about the 3/4 mark

It was also extemely cold that night here in Wis. - so that made it tougher to stay out and shoot.

I guess i'll just have to wait until 2009 and find someplace warmer to shoot.

->> It was freezing down here in chicagoland that night too. My bedroom window had a clear shot so I popped out the screen, cracked open the glass just enough for the lens to poke through and sat comfortably on my bed with the remote shutter release in hand.

Originally I was planning on shooting from Full-to-Full but lost motivation three hours in just after it peaked.
