11/4/2004: Time-lapse photo of eclipse of the moon

I suppose I could actually look it up, but I think time lapse means that you make a movie out of multiple images, but you don't use the standard 16 or 24 frames per second rate. Instead, you lengthen the intervals between frames to your liking.

Multiple exposure is when you take multiple pictures on the same frame of film.

A long exposure time would blur the object.

This picture could actually be a time lapse that was digitally composited into one image later. So it could be time lapse or multiple exposure.

Anyway, I'm sorry to derail this thread with such a nitpick. Especially if I'm proven wrong.

This is a really neat picture.
