Total lunar ecplise Saturday evening won’t hardly be visible at the rancho, beginning as it does in daylight and ending about dusk. But you folks on the east coast and in Europe will enjoy it. Directions and more here./Sky & Telescope photo by Richard Tresch Fienberg.
UPDATE The Brits liked it, anyway.
















Saw portion of the eclipse while on the highway on the way home from my mothers’. Eva and I were awed by the site.

We had it perfect – full night view, no clouds, etc. And it was the most frustrating event of the year for me and my son, since we have not succeeded in getting one usable picture of the process.
Yesterday I went out again – on general principle – and made 18 good shots in a row. Parkinson is alive and well…
I meant Murphy, of course.
Murphy or Parkinson, it works either way. 😉
