Re: [APML] OT: Penumbral eclipse

Stuart, thanks.  The focal length was actually about 330mm, forgot about the 
1.6x crop factor.  This is 100% crop, sharpened up in PS.  The image is just 
as the moon appeared to me visually looking thru the viewfinder, suppose I 
could try to reduce the dynamic range but I don't think it would look right.

Stan - nice one! Very sharp for a short focus camera lens. The image seems
to have a very wide dynamic range - the brightest parts of the moon are too
bright. Is this pretty well what came out of the camera? If not, you might
try to reprocess it to retain the details in the brightest parts of the moon
without losing them in the penumbra.
