Date:  Saturday, December 10th, 2011
Time:  6:00 AM
Location:  Tower Drive, Vista, California. 

1000mm lens, Canon 60D, 1600 ISO, 1/4 sec exposure, unguided.

Lengthening the exposure starts to show the part of the Moon in the shadow of the Earth. And the star Lambda Tauri (to the lower left of the Moon) shows in this 1/4 of a second exposure.
