 Feb. 20, 2008 Total Eclipse over Portland, OR from Council Crest.
---
This is the last total eclipse until Dec 21 2010 which will be quite a special one. It's only 3.44% likely to be a full moon on the winter solstice and for it to be an eclipsed one, wOwEE! After that you won't see a full moon occuring on the winter solstice until 2094... I'll be 113.

The above image is actually a composite of 2 images. A cropped slightly larger moon over the smaller moon of the base photograph. Other than that no photo adjustments were done, it's as the camera saw it.
