Does anyone have any suggestions / tips for taking photos for this? I'm hoping to get a good batch with my S5, but I'm still a novice user.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm on the East coast so sunrise is going to mess up my shots but I'll still give a try.

I wonder if I can sucker a friend to stay up with me to see this

It should be an interesting sunrise, I hope the moon stays visible long enough. Now getting up at 5:30 AM...

Woops! Thanks for the correction.

I guess I should be grateful I'm on the West Coast. So long as it's not cloudy, the view should be beautiful :}

And it just so happens that tomorrow (the 28th) is my birthday. Is that some sort of sign?

That's a bit too late for me. 3 AM's been the normal for a while.

So I've taken pics of crescent moons before that turned out pretty good, but never an eclipse. Does anyone have any tips?

Cool... as a West Coast resident, I'll be in on this one...
