The kind of Eclipse I enjoyed watching

Eclipse_7517

This morning's eclipse wasn't fully visible here in western Wisconsin, but the moon started to move into the earth's shadow as it set over the western horizon. The moon ducked behind a low bank of clouds, so I wasn't able to see if the sunrise could catch up.

It was about zero degrees outside - much too cold to make it truly enjoyable, but it was worth it - especially since there's not going to be another total lunar eclipse for a few years.

And this is what we started with (and what those of you around the Pacific ended with).
