I figured I'd beat Takeda to the punch for once. (Maybe he didn't have a clear sky?) Anyway, for those that missed it, here's how the April eclipse of the moon looked in Aridzona, on a beautiful clear night.

Very nice. It was cloudy here, so missed it.

 

That's awesome! We had 95% cloud cover here in NY and it is pouring right now so I was up at about 130 but could not see anything =(

Thanks for the pics =)

 

Thanks guys, and, you're welcome!

Pouring down rain here all night and most of the morning.

Thanks for sharing...... great shots!

 

Nice pictures! Too much dammed light pollution here (Orlando) to get a decent view of anything in the night sky.

 

Most excellent shots.

Got some pretty good ones a few years back in Indiana myself, but not near this good!

 

Thanks Jack! that was quite a treat! It was monsooning down here in the FL panhandle... Couldn't see past the porch, much less the sky... LOL

 

Very cool. I was curious how this might look. Thanks for sharing!

Cheers

You're all very welcome! I hesitated in posting them, since lunar eclipses are pretty common and I was afraid they might just be boring to everyone. Thank you all for the kind remarks.

That's really neat! Thanks for sharing. I had zero idea this was going on.

 

Coolness. Thanks. I had taken several nice pictures of the near full moon the previous night, the 14th., between 2:30 and 3:00 AM, and the night before around 1:30 AM or so. I had my camera and tripod set up for the Eclipse. But to no avail. Cloudy and rainy here in Delaware too. Had a few breaks in the clouds but none with enough clarity, and none around the peak at 3:00 AM..
