Astronomical!

I failed to see the start of the lunar eclipse; it was cloudy, and then I was eating dinner with my parents (parental units still take priority). But when I got back home, I could see the shadow retreating from the face of the moon.

We couldn't find the camera, but got to watch the whole thing, yes :)

I hope you enjoyed it. I saw your post and growled in frustration because of the clouds.

It was great - not so much blood-red and pinky-orangey-grey, but fascinating :)

There is a good shot of the blood red moon as I saw it that someone has taken and posted on canberra at http://community.livejournal.com/canberra/616046.html
