Lunar Eclipse: Tripod, eh?
I finally broke down and got a better digital camera.
It had all these nifty bells and whistles, including "Scene modes."
I was glancing at the instruction book yesterday and saw that one of the modes was night landscape.
And a lunar eclipse was scheduled this morning!
I thought I'd give it a try.
Oh, it did say "To avoid blur, use a tripod."
But I'm a steady guy.

Right.
By the time I figured out I should have tried it in the portrait mode and at least gotten a clear shot, the sun was coming up.
Wonder what a tripod costs?

You can get a cheap tripod for about $30. Ones with multiple angle adjustments are more.
At least you got to see the eclipse. We had clouds.
Yep. We were lucky to get a glimpse. Sorry about your clouds.
