Went out at 5:30am (ouch!) and drove a few miles north, to Eleven Mile Reservoir, on the east edge of South Park (yes, that South Park). I climbed a 30 meter rock formation above the lake (interesting in the dark), and fought to keep my camera batteries working at -18°C (fought to keep my fingers working, as well). But I managed a few nice shots.

I'm jealous. The moon was well below the horizon here in New York during the eclipse. Nice photos, you all.
Just call me "geck" because "zilla" is like a last name.

The December 10, 2011 total lunar eclipse was photographed over the Union Hills of North Phoenix. The marker lights for the Deer Valley (KDVT) airport can be seen illuminated on the mountain tops. It was incredible to see the fully eclipsed moon set behind the mountain peaks. Most photographs were taken with a Canon t2i and a Canon f/2.0 100 mm prime lens.

Philopappou hill, the opposite hill to the Acropolis of Athens offered a good perspective to capture todays eclipse above the Parthenon. Totality was invisible in Greece, as the moon rose after the end of it, but the moonrise of the partial phase was very beautiful!

If one clicks on one of them can even notice year "1989" at the bottom of the crosses. This was the time when both towers took their actual shape

We watched the almost-completely-eclipsed moon set over South Mountain, from Ahwatukee, in suburban Phoenix, Arizona. Three pictures to share-- ordered by time and by zoom level. Photos taken with a tripod mounted Panasonic Lumix with max 24x zoom, and exposure times ranging between about 1/2 second and 2 seconds at f/5 or so. Time stamps are from 6:54 to 6:57 am (UT - 7), but I haven't calibrated the camera's clock that accurately.
Images by and copyright James Rhoads; feel free to share but please carry the photo credit along.

Friends tell me the eclipse was beautiful in Hawaii, my home state. Does anyone have photos from there to post?

I actually didn't get up to watch it, but I did however set up my camera for 10min intervals. Woke up in the morning to see that the photos worked out and with some editing this is what I got. :)
