Lunar Eclipse

Well, if you didn't already know there was a lunar eclipse tonight. Actually, less than an hour ago. In my excitement that I actually remembered I managed to find my dad's DSLR and the tripod and was able to snap a few good pictures of the eclipse. Unfortunately I missed the total eclipse (NOT of the heart) but I still managed to get some good shots. I took the top three and posted them on Facebook. Unfortunately, Facebook limits the size of the pictures so I uploaded the hi-res photos to Freewebs. Below are the links.

Eclipse 1

Eclipse 2

Eclipse 3

It's late and I'm too tired to make thumbs so you'll just have to go for those links there. Remember, I took these with a Nikon DSLR so the hi-res pics will take little to download if you don't have a real quick connection. Enjoy!

Very nice pictures!

How does FreeWebs work? Is there a limit to the total space you have? Or do they give you whatever you need and just subsidize w/ads? I use PicasaWeb for my pictures, although they limit you to 1GB total space (which is still quite a bit of room).

I'm not even sure how Freewebs works. I used it for my site that has been neglected for some time and figured that was the only place I could upload the pic as close to full size as possible. All the photo sites shrank it down. Freewebs is free but they put in ads to your site. Since they were just jpgs they didn't put any in.
