Lunar eclipse tonight
#11
I have a great view of it outside the balcony, but the clouds keep interfering. Maybe they will break up enough for me to get a shot.

There's a 1 mile long walk in the desert in Lancaster at 6:30 p.m. tonight, lead by an astronomer. I think I'll hit it.

Too bad it won't be visible here. It's windy and crystal clear.

No, Val it won't be. I don't know what it will be come to think of it. Maybe it'll just stay full here. No photos though.

Well the good news is it was near total here. The bad news is my camera won't zoom enough for a decent shot. It's probably just as well; if the camera was up for it the photographer probably wouldn't.
I can tell you all that at one point the moon looked pretty much like the picture on a Moon Pie wrapper - same slanted smile.
