Total Eclipse of the Moon seen May 15, 2003 from southern Alberta (from a site west of Nanton). Moon rose as totality started so was deep into totality by the time it was high enough to see and sky dark enough to make it stand out. Pentax 67 camera with 165mm lens at f/2.8 with Fujicjrome 100f slide film. Fixed tripod. Scanned with Nikon 8000ED with Digital ICE and SuperFine Scan on for band and dust elimination.
