beskrivelse:

March 2007 lunar eclipse. The advancing shadow of Earth brings out detail on the lunar surface. The huge ray system emanating from the large impact crater Tycho is shown as the dominant feature on the southern hemisphere. The bronze-ish hue is produced by Rayleigh scattering as a result of the Moon being relatively close to the horizon at the time this image was captured. Author: Liam Gilmartin. Taken using a point-and-shoot digital camera and a small mass-market 4-inch Maksutov telescope. Simple eyepiece projection into the camera lens.
