Lunar Eclipse

This is a post I did last Saturday, modified for Skywatch. The photos were taken outside in the backyard by my husband. He had just learnt how to take photos of the moon a few days before. We haven't had the camera a long time. He was leaning on the hoist clothes line. They were added from the bottom upwards.











In about 10 minutes the Eastern states will be able to see a lunar eclipse. This is a before photo.

At 8.25 ish I could see black on the moon at about 7 o'clock on the moon.

You can read about it here.

Earlier the moon was so beautiful, I was thinking of trying for a photo.
Now I can see the eclipse, it is a little more advanced than your photo, and too cold to stand outside!!
Love - Jan
