Lunar Eclipse 2004

Tonight the heavens put on quite a show, a full lunar eclipse. I had some concerns from my vantage point, the skies were cloudy and at times the moon was completely hidden. At 9:22 pm by my watch, a full eclipse occured and the skies cleared to reveal a beautiful copper moon.

Beginnings of an eclipse…approximately 8:45 pm EST
