Lunar eclipse !!


Shock news! The moon is bleeding!!



Maybe it was that dragon I saw biting
at it a little earlier?




Ah. No, it's ok. normal service is being resumed!



Well, now I can go to sleep, and rest easy
in my bed then...

A super view of the lunar eclipse from here in
Gloucestershire. Clear skies right through the highpoint
of the show when the moon glowed bronze, then just as
the show came towards its end the cloud started to appear.
Perfect timing!

Reaching for the moon

The moon..... a thing of wonder.....able even to
distract me from Bill Oddie, Kate Humble and Simon
King's thinking person's "Big Brother"
("Springwatch" has returned....hurrah!)

Aided by a tripod, telescope and camera I reach
for the moon.....



....its one small click of the finger.....


one giant leap for imagining......



....beep.....beep.......beep.......

.....Tranquility Base here......the Eagle has landed!!
