What you are seeing here is the shadow of Mauna Kea ( 13,796' ) on the earths atmosphere. Inside that shadow is the lunar eclipse that took place on 2/20/08.
Because of how far west Hawaii is we missed most of the eclipse. What we did see rose at sunset and created a very unique sight.
This is only one frame out of a 1126 frame time lapse I took of the eclipse. The whole time lapse can be viewed here [link]

I particularly loved the animation you put together of all your frames.
Top quality.
