This is the partial eclipse from 03.10.2005. I took the pic near maximum eclipse, sorry, no exact timinig available (had some 300 kids around!).

Technical : Nikon D100, 1/125 sec + 50 mm lens at f1.8, shot bare hand trough a Swan 25 mm 2" eyepiece at my 12.5" f/5 dob (no guiding), stopped down off-axis to an unobstructed 4.75" f/13 and a mylar solar filter. I also applied an orange-yellow lensfilter. Location : Assenede, Belgium.

In this low res image, it is difficult to see, but the high res clearly shows craters at the moon's edge.
