Lunar Eclipse 2018 July 28


2nd Lunar eclipse of the year 2018.  This time I went to the rooftop garden accessible from my block.  The sky was covered with clouds around 1 am and near totality as well as the last hour of the eclipse. P900 is good when there is enough lighting. 




Before the onset of eclipse 28/7/2018 01:42 - the moon spotted in  straw color


Shadow coming on 9 - 10 o'clock position

Shadow created a crescent moon look
Expose for the earthshine area





Blood moon

One hour plus 20 minutes of  full eclipse 
Wider angle view shows Mars and the blood red moon in comparison



The white cap formation - about this time waves of clouds came and I ended my monitoring
