view in Cavite, Philippines
I'm preparing now for the total lunar eclipse, my camera gear and laptop are ready to cover the longest total lunar eclipse after 11 years and it is viewable here in our country. I took some test shots and that's the moon at around 12:47am of June 16, 2011.
See photos here of the total lunar eclipse as we observe it last night
