Introduction

Below, you find pictures of the (nearly total) eclipse of the moon in autumn 2003. The pictures were taken with a Minolta Dimage A1 digicam positioned on a tripod (apart from picture 1). It is difficult to find differences between different phases - probably the exposure times have to be shorter for that. The pictures are 1:1 section from 5 MP images (2560*1920 pixels).
