Io Lookalike

The most subtle of all the types of eclipses, ideal conditions are necessary to be able to see penumbral eclipses. Tonight was one of
those nights. I got out there shortly after 7:00 pm EDT, nearly two hours into the roughly four hour event. The southern highlands of the
Moon were clearly immersed in a shadow, easily discernible through binoculars. At some points this was even evident by naked eye. I
took photos of the Moon every 5 minutes from 7:15pm to 8:30pm, while gazing at the spectacle through binos in between shots. All of
the images were taken though a 4.5" reflector with a Kodak Z885 point and shoot camera
