AUSTRALIA is set for a rare blood moon this weekend

Old Picture from the web


Anyone going to try and get some photos this weekend??
Would be great!

I'd really like to try and catch this eclipse but it's taking place at sunrise.  I guess I could try to stay up for it (or get up early) but it's going to occur as the moon is setting.  That might lend itself to some amazing shots as it sets over the horizon although the sky will lighten almost immediately afterwards.  I'll see how I go.  Might be worth getting out early to see it... although the last few have been washouts with rain and/or heavy cloud blocking the view.


This is a shot I took of the last partial Lunar Eclipse I that I saw...

Yep! The weather may put a damper on it.  

my fingers will be crossed if you do manage to get any photos of it.
