Lunar Eclipse

The full lunar eclipse from February 20, 2008. Extremely cold temperatures outside (13F, windchill was -5F). Used the Tamron 500mm with a 1.4x teleconverter giving a total range of 700mm. Next full lunar eclipse in North America is not until December 2010.

Liechtenstein Garden Palace

The Liechtenstein Museum in Vienna, Austria, named after the House of Liechtenstein, one of Europe’s oldest noble families. The museum includes the Princely Collections containing important European works of art, forming one of the world’s leading private art collections.

The Garden Palace in Vienna’s present-day Rossau district was constructed during the reign of Prince Johann Adam Andreas I of Liechtenstein (1657-1712), who was one of the greatest builders of his day.
