Moon Emerging From Shadow
We watched the total lunar eclipse last night from our house. Sunset here yesterday was at 8:10 PM PDT, and the moon entered totality at 8:14 PM, so the moon was already dark when it was first rising and took a long time to become visible through the dust and murk of Sacramento Valley air. The image at left was taken about 10 minutes after the end of totality.
- i didn’t take pictures, but enjoyed the eclipse while having a barbecue party at my friend’s at solano park. it was very beautiful to watch.— Fernanda 16. May 2003, 12:02 Link
