The Virtual Christmas Fireplace

For those cold nights when your local air quality board says " No!" to burning anything in your fireplace,
an image to warm your heart and kindle memories of warm feet.
Merry Christmas, everyone!

Totality, Winter Solstice Lunar Eclipse 2010

Clouds darted in front of the moon all evening long shortly after this shot was taken, I called it quits as there was no much hope of seeing the emergence from totality. I feel lucky getting the shots I did!

Nearing Totality-Solstice Lunar Eclipse 2010

The awful weather predicted for today moved south and we were spared. Not so lucky those in Southern CA. Still, we had cloud cover for a chunk of the celestial event of the season, but was lucky to get a few shots in.

Lunar Eclipse, 2008

This eclipse was in February, 2008. Hope to get lucky again on 12/21/2001 but our wet, overcast weather may spoil it.
