118 - La Luna

This morning we had a partial lunar eclipse.  Because it was so low on the horizon, I had to shoot from the street in front of my home and unfortunately what makes my cul de sac safe is what make taking pictures a challenge.  The light pollution from the street lights prevented me from taking the images I wanted.  I did catch a star at the upper right.
 
This one I took a long time ago with a 300mm lens (which focuses to 450 on a standard 35mm camera.)

Another lunar eclipse viewable from North America is coming December 21, 2010 according to NASA .
