Lunar Eclipse Dec 2010
Mid-eclipse, totality! The cloud and haze were really closing in fast by now; this is the best pic of a dozen I shot trying to capture totality. Shortly after, the overcast became 100% and that was pretty much it for the night. Better than nothing!
Conditions: Sky was hazy with frequent cloudy periods, temp steady around +4C, humidity was 100%.
