    Definitely not the same moon.

    How could you see it from down there?

    Missed the blood moon last night and the lunar eclipse this morning. Thanks for posting pics from your neck of the woods.

    Taking Halimeda, my sea kayak, out for a moonlight paddle tomorrow night with about 15 other paddlers. Should be a beautiful trip.

    No fancy blood moons but recently got a scope for my 7 year old. Not bad...

    Same moon, Andy probably had his camera upside down ;).

    Quite easily, we had one of the best views in the world.

    Actually Wednesday 26 May at 11:18 UTC Doug, you'll have to catch the next one ;).
    Alberta was right on the edge of the ability to view the total eclipse from start to finish.

    Same moon, I am a lot closer to the equator than @JimInOz

    He’s all the way down south (in lockdown again :thumbsdown: ) as I am all the way up the top.
