Hey Guys,

Was anyone able to see the total lunar eclipse a few days ago? Here are some pics I took that night. Don’t ask me if I was able to show up for work on time the next day.

Unfortunately, it is always cloudy here during major astronomical events. and that night was no exception. :(

Last year there was a major meteor shower my wife and I were looking forward too. It was clear all day and at 11:00, but when we came out at 2:00 to take a look it was quite foggy.
 
Yeah... It rained here too so I missed it. Thanks for the pics!
 
I took some pics through a telescope with my camera phone, but only the ones before the eclipse came out clear.
