Total lunar eclipse here right now. Too cool for school!

[Scuba]

Been watching for the past 90 minutes. Best I've seen in my 66 years. Not a cloud in the sky.

1. it was/is low on the horizon here

and a little hazy. still got a nice red hue in totality... coming out now.

i got some really good shots of the full lunar during the winter solstice a few years back... that was the best one I ever saw... almost straight overhead...

2. I see I am...

...not the only one crazy enough to be up watching this, even tho I have to really get up for work in another hour -

3. I got to see it before the clouds moved in.

4. Spectacular in OC Cal.

Just brilliant - but I'm stopping now. Must sleep an hour or so before getting up again.

5. It is VERY cool.

It's in totality here now, but still visible. The local news has taken some spectacular shots of it. And did I hear there will be three more between now and 2016?

It's simple stuff like this that can show you how good things can be.

I could probably pull up a lawn chair and just sit and watch until the sun comes up. (But too cold for that here.)

6. There are some pics in the photography group

and I expect more will be added along the way.

I got a few myself and some rather cold toes as a bonus.

7. They really need to schedule eclipses for when I'm awake.

I could never be an astronomer. I like sleeping at night.
