Hello everyone, nice to see such great images!
I got one of the June 2010 eclipse taken from Auckland New Zealand:
This is a mosaic of 12 panels taken with a Philips ToUCam's 640x480 resolution and a 0.6x focal reducer (otherwise I'd have to do 20 panels
). An IR block filter was added to ensure correct color representation because I particularly wanted the reddening of the shadow to be visible. Exposures of both 1/1250s, 1/1500s and 1/1000s were blended together to capture the full dynamic range of the partially eclipsed Moon. Each panel is a stack of 190 frames, which provided for low noise levels so the image could be processed with curves and sharpening in Photoshop.
A full size version can be viewed here:
