Lunar Eclipse in the Village
Scotia residents enjoyed clear skies last night as the shadow of the earth passed over the full moon.

For the camera buffs out there, this series of photos were taken with a Canon EOS 30D
This was one of the few times I have used the camera in completely manual raw mode.
I admit making the silly mistake that I could take test shots before the eclipse started to find the best settings. As the sky darkened it became obvious that I had to manually adjust the settings to find the perfect exposure.
