Total Lunar Eclipse

Total Lunar Eclipse (by jump4jay)

Seems like we never got to see the moon 100% covered by shadow here in Montreal. Nonetheless, it was still very cool seeing the moon in a reddish hue.

Of the 50 or so shots I took while freezing my tuckus off, this, in my opinion, is the better one of the bunch. I, unfortunately, no longer have my 75-300mm zoom lens which would have been great for this opportunity (I had brought the lens back and purchased a Speedlite instead). Here’s a shot that I had taken of a full moon back in August 2007 with the 75-300mm lens.

I now have a Sigma 18-200mm lens which I absolutely love, it’s a great all-around everyday piece of glass. But in a situation like this, I’m starting to learn more of it’s weaknesses.

It's Here... (by Jason Lister)

Yep, the photoblog is no longer going to be on jump4jay.com from now on. There’s already a handy link on the navbar above for anyone visiting jump4jay.com directly. For you RSS users out there the URL is http://jump4jay.com/photos (RSS feed URL is http://feeds.feedburner.com/JasonListerPhotography). It can also be reached by going to http://jason.lister.name

I will still use jump4jay.com as a word blog and write stuff from time to time, just as I once did.

I hope you guys enjoy it… there aren’t many photos up yet, and a lot of you will notice some repeats from the old photoblog, but I have to upload them for archival purposes, so bear with me on that one.
