I awoke drunk with sleep last night at 2:00am or so to step outside and check out the total lunar eclipse. Half asleep, I struggled into my boots and coat, but I was still able to enjoy the majesty of the event. The eclispe happens over a few hours, so I only glimpsed a portion of it, but it was cool none-the-less. I fell instantly back to sleep and awoke again at 3:30am. At that point it was in total eclipse mode with a reddish/orange hue. Beautiful.
Here is the one (half asleep) photo I took with my point and shoot. There are much better photos all over the internet today.
