Partial Lunar Eclipse ! was created by Keith g
Hi all, tonight's Partial Lunar Eclipse was much more noticeable then I had expected. I had thought that it would be barely be even visible, never mind the decent dark 'chunk' taken out of the moon in the 10 o'clock position :)

I got a nice shot of it rising over my local lake

Seen nothing here is Stepaside it was clouded over as usual when anything is happening :(. But now as I sit here studying for a test tomorrow the moon is shining right in the back door. I swear its laughing at me :woohoo: .

Congratulations, Dave, Seanie, Donal and Keith. Unfortunately, John Flannery, Michael Murphy, Tony H, Valerie and myself could not see the Moon until after 10 pm -and the eclipse over. Still we looked at the double -double in Lyra at 140X. Then we looked at Jupiter and its version of a double -double. Europa and Io to its west and Ganymede and Callisto to its east. Very nice.
Sorry you missed the eclipse, Paul.
