(Moon during totality; R 3sec, G 1.5 sec, B 3 sec, binning 1x1; taken during night of April 14-15, 2014)
[I took, and am processing, 77 frames over approx 5 hours - each frame every 4 minutes, or 1 degree transit through the sky; each frame is a combined Red, Green and Blue image, taken approx. 1 minute appart. Due to moving cloud cover, some of the frames have bizarre colors - one case where a one-shot color camera may do better. A telextender (which I have) for the FSQ would have enlarged the image, and provided a slightly higher resolution view of the moon. Luckily, during most of the umbral and totality phases, the clouds moved out of the FOV. Once all the frames have been processed, I plan to make an animation of the eclipse - earth's shadow crossing over the moon - compressing 5 hours into about 15 seconds. Exposures ranged from 4 mS to 3S.]

(Normally, a barlow, Powermate or other focal length extender is used to enlarge the optical image for more resolution on the CCD chip; even so, resolution is 400x400 pixels at best. Thus the need for only webcam resolution to do planetary imaging.)
