I really like these shots.

For those in central and western North America and the Pacific, tomorrow morning will offer an even more exciting Moon photo opportunity, a partial eclipse !

Weather permitting, I'll be ready.

Here's the details:

Good luck,Steaphany.I'm too far east for this one.

Being in Texas, my view will be borderline, but for any in Hawaii, New Zealand, or Australia, you'll have a front row seat. Finally getting through my email backlog, I found this article on NASA News:

Big Lunar Eclipse

and they include some nice graphics of the event:



and where the eclipse can best be seen:
