Lunar eclipse

[vaneramos]

The sky has cleared enough for me and Brenna to watch the lunar eclipse. The earth's shadow has taken a bite out of the lower half already. It will reach totality at 10:23 EDT. Hopefully the clouds will hold off. In another half hour we'll drive to the edge of town to take a good look through the binoculars. It's a balmy 7°C/45°F; couldn't ask for much nicer on a night in late October.

I would love to see some of those photos. None of my friends have posted any. My camera simply was not designed for that kind of shot.

The moon here went through all kinds of shades. Before the end it turned a dark ashy grey and was almost invisible.

It will take me a week or so to get them up, but I'll let everyone know when they're ready for viewing!
