Nice series! Couldn't see it in Geneva unfortunately, due to the clouds.

Posted by tulna at February 21, 2008 06:39 AMyessssss.
i am speechless.
best regards from Lithuania.
Excellent, very creative, at first I thought it was just a bunch of coins, keep up the good work!
Posted by Mohammad at February 21, 2008 08:10 AMAwesome!!! WAY more info needed. How did you trip the shutter? Is this a multi-exposure on one frame? Is this the full frame? What was the interval? Is this colour?
Seriously cool, though.
Posted by Jeremy Sale at February 21, 2008 08:14 AMBeing Unique A+
Fantastic relevant theme A+
Great composition A+
Your a "straight A" student Sam!
At first I thought it was a macro shot of a screw, but then I was amazed at what it actually is!
Beautiful composition, as always. I've been a fan for over a year now and am continually impressed. However the eclipse started at 10pm and finished at 11pm yesterday!
Posted by Norm at February 21, 2008 09:01 AMvery well composed. could you explain how did you put all 36 frames together. was it a post process with PS or some photography technique?
Thanks.
just brilliant
Posted by muns at February 21, 2008 09:36 AMdo you have the collored version? does it have a redish shade?
Great work!
Posted by A.R. at February 21, 2008 10:09 AMseems to me like this was the less interesting part of the eclipse. why not capture it when it was turning red?
Posted by schmee at February 21, 2008 10:15 AMGreat pic......most surreal representation of the moon ever seen!!! well done :)
Posted by Chris at February 21, 2008 10:33 AMAwesome shot!!
Posted by Pauly Shore at February 21, 2008 10:38 AMAmazing. What a great series of frames.
Posted by Elizabeth at February 21, 2008 10:53 AMAny chances of getting a wallpaper version made of this?
Posted by Andrew at February 21, 2008 11:30 AMi love it! i attempted to take a picture of the eclipse but it turned out very poorly. what a great idea for a pic!
Posted by Cara at February 21, 2008 11:32 AMWhat a wonderful picture! I watched the eclipse last night but to see this is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing all of your pictures, I enjoy coming here each day.
Posted by Rhonda at February 21, 2008 12:11 PMThat is awesome.
Posted by Kimberly Way at February 21, 2008 12:37 PMso I wasn't imagining it, there wans't ever a point where the right side wasn't a little bright. Good to know. Thanks for this... don't suppose you have any close ups coming?
Posted by fragileheart at February 21, 2008 12:48 PMsimply amazing!
Posted by jesse at February 21, 2008 01:08 PMWow! This is plain great! Hugely original way to see it! My congratulations.

Posted by capture it, share it! at February 21, 2008 01:51 PMhello from SF
hey man, this picture is freak'n awesome.
on the west coast the moon had this weird red tint to it.
awesome pix.
Posted by Shahin at February 21, 2008 01:57 PMBeautiful.
Is it multi-exposure or was it stitched in photoshop?
Posted by asdfsdaf at February 21, 2008 02:53 PMI tried doing exactly this last night, but we had some serious cloudage going on in Atlanta. Also, what kind of camera/lens did you use? I dont think my Rebel XTi with the stock lens makes the cut when it comes to shooting the moon.
Posted by Paul Brown at February 21, 2008 03:08 PMYour level of creativity never seems to disappoint me, Sam.
Posted by Stan at February 21, 2008 04:06 PMBrilliant. Can we ask for a desktop?
Posted by Eric Zhao at February 21, 2008 06:38 PMThis is a nasty effect, wish i could have gotten such a capture last night! Well done!
Posted by Evgeny Pogorelov at February 21, 2008 07:02 PMMy tripod was broken so i couldn't get my shots. Kudos to yours sir. Top notch top notch.
Cheers.
Seriously cool Sam. Great bit of work!
Posted by sean at February 21, 2008 08:04 PMglad you got this, it was too cloudy where i live!
Posted by Claude at February 21, 2008 08:25 PMThis is AWESOME! How do you accomplish this?
Posted by beebo at February 21, 2008 09:35 PMWhat a beautiful collection of shots.
Thanks for sharing.
You never cease to impress. OK, I know things like this have been done before, but 36 frames, and on a perfect diag. And who cares if its cropped, its still great.
Posted by ROB at February 22, 2008 01:49 AMThis is a great picture and very creative. I suggest you to send it to yourpics@bbc.co.uk
they have a series of lunar eclipse picture now:

very very awesome! ;)
Posted by Blu at February 22, 2008 03:15 PMAt the first sight, I was thinking a collar balls but no it a spectacular moon multi shots. Brillant! I would be interest to see this picture in colour.
Sam, excellent idea to layer them. Very well done.
