Slog - Comments on The Lunar Eclipse http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/08/the_lunar_eclipse I tried. I went to bed, I set an alarm. I got up, took the tripod and the camera outside. I really wanted to take an honest, pretty picture of the eclipse. A moment with Nature. I set a nice long exposure on the camera... Um, WTF is that under the moon?...

That happens lots in cameras and shows up when shooting something brighter than surrounding area usually they are not as bright as the object you are shooting. Your original image is a little overexposed and a little blurry so it comes out looking like it has a ghost object in reverse.
