dark lunar eclipse

from all accounts that i've heard, the lunar eclipse late monday night was a "dark" one. the moon appeared especially dark red as it passed thru the earth's shadow.



here is what the moon saw as the earth passed in front of the sun.... a solar eclipse from the moon!

Astropixie, great images. We in the UK had no opportunity to see the Lunar eclipse although a number of amatuers on the sky at night forum linked to some web albums where there are some stunning images. Keep up the good work.
