What a gorgeous moonrise last night! I took these at about 5:45 p.m.
Later on there was a total lunar eclipse. I didn't spend a lot of time outside, since it was about 0°F at the time, so it was a little "chilly". Fortunately there was no wind at all. If there had been, I wouldn't have been out there! There also were a few light clouds, like in the above photos, so it was hard getting good shots. I could hardly make out any stars, and the clouds kept floating across the moon, so the 1st and 3rd pics below look a little hazy. When the eclipse was total, I could barely see it in the sky, due to the clouds, but the camera probably wouldn't have picked it up, anyway. Here are three of the best shots I got.
The first two are before the moon was completely covered.
This one is when the moon was on its way back.

Wow, those are cool, Mum. Thanks for putting them up. I wanted to look outside and see it, but I was too lazy. And I don't know how far I would have had to walk to get a clear view.
