A glimpse of Tuesday's lunar eclipse, as seen through the lens of a photographer friend. I kept popping out to watch the progression, as I had a great view from the front door, but am glad to have these photos to commemorate the event... especially since it will be almost two years until the next lunar eclipse.

When I went over the our neighbor's to let their dog out - they own a pub and are at work until late - the lunar eclipse was at its height.

The moon looked wonderful framed by their trees, with the trees lit by a yard light. I don't have a very long lens, just a zoom that goes to 300mm, and the exposure in darkness was so long that the moon appears way brighter than it was, but at least I gave it a shot. Brrrr, it was minus 11C (that's about 12F) while I was out.
