Blood Moon Eclipse Last Night

[Mben]

Who saw this amazing moon last night. I got a crappy picture with my phone but oh well. At least I saw it and it was spectacular!  If you missed last night's eclipse ... Three more chances If you missed it Tuesday, there will be more opportunities.North America will see a blood moon four times -- known as a tetrad -- between now and September of next year. In addition to Tuesday, it will make another appearance on October 8 of this year, and April 4 and September 28 of next year.<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/15/tech/innovation/blood-moon/" >http://www.cnn.com/2014/04/15/tech/innovation/blood-moon/</a>Miss those, and you'll have to wait until 2032.

I watched the whole thing from beginning to end with a beer on my front porch smoking cigarettes and listening to my playlist.There wasn't a cloud in the sky it was beautiful! Unfortunately my phones camera sucks! I gave up trying to take pictures as the shadow across the moon got larger when I realized every one of them looked the same, when it turned red I tried again but my camera didn't even see it anymore.My neighbor came out when it was just tuning all red and let me look through his binoculars, now I wish those darned things had a camera built in them!  Even without them it was amazing, I just listened to my music and stared at the red moon for a while.It looked like it was Mars not the Moon!

I couldn't see it when I aimed the phone at it but took the pic anyway and it showed up.
