The moon is going into total eclipse tonight.

5. Cloudy here in NE Wisconsin
It's supposed to clear up later, but the eclipse will probably be over by then.

10. Here are some pics...




Best I could do at the time on short notice... Done inside the apartment, behind a window with moisture on it, no tripod, quick'n'dirty pics. Moisture, blech... Not the best quality, but I'm not aiming to take a pic to print and hang on the wall... :rofl:

12. Saw it! Part of it, anyhow.
From about 2/3 of total. It was pretty low in the sky so I had to go where the trees weren't in the way, but it was totally cool. I love this stuff.
