So what the chances of a clear night tonight to see the lunar eclipse? Fat
chance or slim chance?

Cheers.

By the time it had climbed above the hill here, it was already only
partially eclipsed. Guess I should have got off my bum and climbed the hill.

Glad to see some got good view, I did from about 21:30 onwards as it cleared
up nicely here

Didn't manage to get any good pix, don't have a good enough camera for the
lack of light

For those of you who missed it, you may well enjoy this: -

Cleared in Selsey, West Sussex. Here's 7 of the 255 images I took
;-). The first one is just to point out how difficult it was to spot
over the sea...

I agree about no. 6, an excellent shot by Pete taken at the best time,
for me. I had a good view from here of the last part of totality and
the best bit was the 5 minutes around the end of totality, a wonderful
sight as the sun started once again to illuminate the moon's edges.

It's very difficult to portray a high contrast scene like that
photographically - although the human eye can see it easily (well mine
did!). Pete's effort in number 6 is as good, in such circumstances, as
you are ever likely to see. Simply superb.

It's a lot better that my attempt (see a few posts earlier) - I
literally only had enough time to set up the tripod and turn the camera
on and take a pic before it clouded over and started raining!
