Description:

This image is an annotated version of the base version, I submitted in the Online Gallery titled: 'Wide Angle End-to-End Partial Eclipse Composite with Freedom Tower'. This is a wide-angle composite showing various phases of the partial lunar eclipse with the Freedom Tower in the foreground. The moon at the maximum eclipse was 37 deg high making it impossible to capture it close to any known points of interest. After due thought, I felt imaging with Freedom Tower would be ideal as I live close to it across the river and it still looks pretty tall! The lunar discs are separated 2.5 minutes apart. I like to annotate eclipse images (both solar/Lunar) to make it more informative. I went ahead and marked the key phases and the timestamp of the partial eclipse in the composite image.
