Okay this is hands down the best image of this event I have ever seen. The progression of the moon phases is spot on but the foreground is what really makes this image awesome. Shooting at 400mm really compresses the image perfectly. Wow!

Wow. superb shot. I love the time laps. Here in the Pacific NW, you are lucky if you can see anything other than dark grey overcast this time of the year.
