There are way better shots out there than this but here is a shot I have captured just a hour ago.
The cropped version
The uncropped version
It'll be awesome to watch this {the beginning at least} with my young budding astronomer since we are doing Astronomy for Science this year. She has done nothing but soak it up so this is an experience we will never forget! We sadly missed the Harvest Moon a couple months back due to clouds so we are thankful they aren't hanging around so thick tonight! :)
Stay warm it's a chilly one out there tonight! Enjoy watching History and the majesty of God's handwork unfolding right before your eyes.
Goodnight all and happy moon gazing!
*Updated 20 mins into the Eclipse... I totally jinxed ourselves!!!! Grr... now the clouds are so thick we can't see any part of the moon. Boo! So my little girl and I are watching online. In my daughter's words "Go Earth!" Thankful though to still be able to watch the Eclipse take place. Besides I guess the up side is I am not listening to my daughter say how cold she is anymore. heehee

I didn't even try photos of the eclipse...I've tried full moons before and my camera just doesn't do them justice. It's a beautiful shot. I saw part of the eclipse...became too tired to stay up for the whole thing, but wished I could have seen it.
