Eclipse of the Moon

Looking a lovely place for Moon eclipse observation

Last week has been dominated by eclipse of the Moon. We had a trip for possible locations (with a romantic ruins on the horizont) week ago. Our weather condition was really poor during eclipse time so the phase of totality has been obscured by cloud completely. There are a few pictures and one animation to illustrate the times.

The trip is also documented on pages of Janapka and on Galaxy tea.
