For those of you thinking about shooting tonight's lunar eclipse, I suggest you check out Imaging Resource's Moon Photo 101 article and the Moon Photography blog post by photographer Ryan Zimmerma.
The eclipse itself last from 1:00 to 6:00 am (Eastern Time). The full eclipse occurs roughly 3:00am.
The Zimmerman post suggest how you can prepare in advance using an OpenSource software program, Stellarium. The Imaging Resource article gives some additional tips on using the software.
Of course, neither can help much if the weather fails to cooperate.
The forecast for my area calls for clear skies.
And freezing temperatures.
P.S. DP Review has some tips for shooting the eclipse as well.
