tonight's eclipse

So did anyone see the lunar eclipse this evening? I didn't know anything about it until I saw it while driving home from work tonight. Once I got home I grabbed the artillery and snapped a photo. How did it appear to you guys in the north and on the east coast?

Re: tonight's eclipse

It looked a lot like your picture up here no4, but a lot farther away...

Re: tonight's eclipse

Wow -- nice pic! Here in the Southland the clouds parted long enough for me and my 3 1/2-year-old to enjoy it.
 

Nrrrm! Whoosh! Rat-tat-tat!
--sounds of a happy diecast collector

Re: tonight's eclipse

Great picture for sure! The only thing I saw here in Orlando was 500 commerical aircraft lights in the sky. They are all coming here to take their kiddies to overpriced Walt Dismal World or also called The Magic Condom for the high prices they charge, even for parking.

Great pic! I didn't see it last night, so the pic will have to do!

Had a good view as the skies are nice and clear as we don't have a walt dismal world down here ( mike you sure you don't work there? )
