My eclipse PIC (even through the light clouds).
10 minutes ago as seen from Durham NC--from Lex's front yard, and using a plant stand and a vegetarian cookbook as a makeshift tripod.

16. Quick! Someone go look at the White House lawn.
The moon's blood red and Dimwit just may be out celebrating with his "war dance".

Glad you enjoyed the picture! :hi:

19. Just took my 11-year old son out to see it
Even though it was past his bedtime.

A spectacular sight through binoculars.

25. Thanks Lex!!
I totally missed it - slept right through it. I did see the huge full moon on the way home about 6:00 or so - but missed the eclipse later on.

26. Just after it went full here, the clouds rolled in. It was not real red
but background stars made it a lovely site.
