It should be visible to those in the Pacific North-West too, if you're prepared to get up at 3am.

I've seen one..

I did'nt even know it was supposed to be happening, just out in the backyard and noticed it as it began, and watched the whole event.

It was'nt a full eclipse, but about 75%... pretty cool

It's looking a bit cloudy this afternoon. I hope it clears, at least around the moon, for tonight's event.

For me the most interesting part is how it reminds us we are all on a ball in space. Just cool to watch the moon pass through the Earths shadow.

I See It! I See It!

My best picture of the bloodmoon

awesome...

It was semi clear this morning but I missed it.
Was actually thinking more about work than the eclipse (even though I'm the OP

)

I did look for it once I arrived at work, it was still dark but no moon in sight.
Oh well... next time. I've seen one of these before anyways.
