C'est saisissant de voir combien la seule lumière du soleil (proton) suffit à voiler les multiples autres objets de la voie lactée.

Hi - I just got your answer. Thanks so much for the explanation.

It's a beautiful picture, and I can understand the reason for the long exposure; however, I do think that someone should have made the thing more pronounced for people who are just becoming interested in astronomy - and who may be confused as to what a lunar eclipse is in the first place.

Thanks again for the answer!!
