Lunar Eclipse


Here are two images of tonight's lunar eclipse as shot through the picture window in my living room. Since the outside air temp was about -15 degrees, that was the best that I could do. Luckily, my window faces east, and I was able to get some pictures of the moon before it rose too high into the sky. I took pictures from about 8:15 to about 9:15 tonight, and I could see how quickly the moon was rising. In the first picture, I believe the bright spot on the left is Saturn. The next full lunar eclipse is not set to happen until December 2010, so hopefully you were able to catch a glimpse of it tonight! And how awesome is it that there were clear skies!
