Hello Jill, what a wonderful album. You had the best weather for this. I looked a the pictures in full size - and they are amazing!! Even the not so sharp image is great. 2 seconds is a long exposure time. I love the glow of the moon - it looks like on fire! Jill, It feel as if ages went by since I wrote to you. But its just 3 weeks. Maybe because of all the busy time of the holiday season and some troubles let seem it much longer. I hope you had a happy Easter with your family. Passover was more busy than usual, I don't know why! Soon my troubles will be over an I hope I can better concentrate and deal better with things. I am happy you enjoyed Yoav's pictures. He is an amazing child. Two days ago I took pictures of him eating frozen yogurt. He is eating so nicely and enjoying it. I put some of those pictures at the begin of his album. First I thought to submit them for the challenge 'food' but sure they are looking for different images. Jill, I hope you are fine an I hope you by now recovered completely from your injury. Take care my dear! - Galit

Excelent captures of the eclipse! It is something worth watching at least once in a lifetime.

Thanks Jill :o) 15 pounds (times 2) it's a steep price to be able to take pics of the courtyards :o( So I don't feel too bad for the pics I stole inside :o) Ciao! Roberto

Jill, I was so disappointed we missed that as it was very cloudy! Now I haven't and what a fabulous documentation of it. These captures are outstanding and I am so happy to see them. Isn't it a beautiful thought to know so many people the world over were looking up at the sky at the same time. Thank you so much for your visit yesterday, don't you think Pete looks adorable in his pretty Easter ears? LOL...he is such a great sport! Hugs Leslie

Hot diggidy darn! Jill, you've had a prime seat for this spectacular performance! Our skies were overcast and by the time the moon came out it was all over with. Your shots are nothing short of fantastic!!! You do have to tell me how you managed these closeups! Incredible. This was definitely worth the visit :D! And thanks for your visit to my Tropical Dreams too! Jill, it is just so hard to keep up with visiting everybody, no matter how much you like them (and their photographs). So I am just happy when I can stop by every 3-4 weeks or if you stop by no matter how much time has passed, it is always such a joy to "see" an old friend!!! :D!!!!! Unfortunately my shoulder's still not better, I've gotten better at writing, but camera & mousework are still not possible. Surgery seems inevitable :(, but my absolute last resort (don't like them docs with them butcher knives :D). You have a fantastic weekend, my friend, and enjoy the wonderful days of spring! Big Hugs. Marita

Hi Jill These are magnificent photos, beautifully done. I love the way the slideshow makes the moon really float across the sky, especially in the last two photos. Wonderful to see.Love and hugs, Peter

this wonderful album. Your captures were an extraordinary pleasure to view. Thank you for sharing Brian

said waterl00 2007.03.16 at 17:43:04 PDT

Hello there. What an exquisite slideshow. Your detail and the clarity of your photos are unbelievable - it gives anyone like myself missing the moment, the opportunity of a perfect viewing. I must, yet again, apologise for my lack of communication but my computer has just crashed for the second time in 3 weeks. I have such a huge number of outstanding albums to view and goodness knows how many guest book entries to respond to and I really have started getting quite a complex about it! A striking set of images of what must have been an amazing visual for you (as you mentioned, more so in the UK where one rarely if ever gets cloudless skies!) Best wishes, Sue

Jill, I'm glad to see these beautiful pictures of the lunar eclipse shared here as well! I enjoyed very much watching them earlier today. Take care, Yair.

Well done, Jill! This is amazing photography! You not only were lucky to have clear weather, but also all the right equipment to take such stunning pictures. These are truly some outstanding photographs. Best wishes, Suresh

Fabulous shots Jill. Thanks again for providing some different photos for us to enjoy. I also enjoyed your autumn by the Lakes and the boats on the shore - great as a desktop! - thanks.

said jaydeh 2007.03.05 at 23:22:43 PST

Great shots Jill. I cant beleive all the detail on your first few shots. Amazing. Take care. Christy

said savage_gardener 2007.03.05 at 17:47:56 PST

Hi Jill, Super shots, it was wonderful to think that so many people were watching the same thing at the same time, bit like an OFC meet on the moon! Chris G

said btonbell 2007.03.05 at 04:48:37 PST

These are GREAT, Jill! I wanted to see what I could get but it was totally clouded over, so no luck here. The telescope did a beautiful job - with your help! <grin> ... Hugs, Judy

A simply incredible album Jill! What fantastic shots! Bravo my friend!!! Hugs, Dar

Great photos Jill. You have captured it really well. It was a beautiful clear night here too and the stars were in abundance. It's not often so good. Jill
