Total Lunar Eclipse over Saguaro National Park

A massive storm was hammering the entire West Coast this lunar eclipse approached, so I decided to drive as far as I had to to get out from under the clouds. One 2000 mile round trip later, here’s a timelapse video spanning several hours. During the total eclipse the moon turns very dim and red, coloring the clouds and the landscape below.

Update: The copy I uploaded here to Blogger was converted poorly to a low resolution copy, so I deleted it. For best results at the moment, watch a preview of my lunar eclipse timelapse video over on YouTube: http://youtu.be/26aXK2vg6EI. 

I’ve also uploaded a timelapse video covering several hours of the Geminid meteor shower from 2010, condensed into a few seconds. I successfully uploaded an HD copy to Vimeo, so this is the best resolution and quality timelapse video of any event that I’ve been able to present to the public so far: http://vimeo.com/18185456

Here’s one of my still images from the lunar eclipse:
