I had a friend visit last night, and as he was leaving he pointed out the partial eclipse of the moon. It happens quicker than you can imagine, so I just set up the camera with 24-70 lens on and managed a couple of shots from the garden. The lights below the moon are the town of Largs.
1D2, 24-70, F22 @ 30secs, ISO100, tripod and timed release.

Nice result Phil, especially as you were working against the clock.
I haven't seen very many of these {even though they are more common than the eclipse of the sun}, as its often cloudy when they occur {unless ive just had bad luck}.
Composition looks good to me, and the exposure you chose has worked a treat.
