Hello All,
I set the alarm clock and got to my telescope in time for the onset of the partial phase. From my place in Fremont I could follow the event until a bit after maximum eclipse when the moon disappeared behind trees. I took the images with my 13" F4 Newtonian stopped to 11" (F5) and the Canon Rebel XT DSLR in full resolution. I have put reduced versions of the images on the web.

Enjoy,
