Lunar Eclipse April 2014

This is a collage of images that were made during last night's lunar eclipse. My main problem was the persistent moisture that kept forming on my lens that prevented sharper images. This morning my wife told me that I should have brought her hair dryer to keep the lens warm between shots and preventing the moisture from forming on the glass. Now why didn't I think of that when the problem arose?

I used an Olympus Zuiko 70-300 mm lens. Settings were f 5.6, 6 second, ISO 400, 300 mm focal length, tripod mount, 2 sec shutter release

Another way to keep a lens warm is using a hand warmer pack held on with rubber band. It also won't wake the neighbors
