Anyone suggest a good place to view this close to downtown? Maybe Scotsman's?

Is it true many Asians consider lunar eclipses to be bad luck?

Funny, at 8:01 I had a weird craving for human flesh, and when my neighbours were sitting next door watching this, I had the overwhelming urge to fire up the bbq and invite them over . . . for dinner.

Kinda disappointed, Human Flesh doesn't taste like chicken, more like really old moose.

Next time an eclipse comes along, I'm gonna plan ahead and do some marinating first.

I wish I could take credit, but they are from Suomo at his folks':
(I think they are great, but he doesn't like any)

300spartans... nice shot!

Here's an album of about 30+ of my shots, untouched except for compressing for web display. I'll include a couple of good ones if I can hotlink them. (Nope, can't seem to hotlink from Picasa). Definitely some printable ones in there.

-The tightest shots are 300 mm
-The "star" to the lower left is actually Saturn
-I wobbled the camera intentionally on a couple for an (ahem) interesting effect
-The last couple, while dark, show the crowd watching the event in the foreground
