So last night there was a lunar eclipse, and there was quite a lot of hype about the super blue blood moon (super = the moon at its closest to the Earth, blue = second full moon in a calendar month, blood = full lunar eclipse where the moon appears redder than usual).
The day was a little cloudy, and after dinner I went outside to take a look, but did not manage to see the moon. A little later, I tried again and saw a rather reddish moon hidden behind the clouds. About half of it was visible, but blurred because it was behind some wispy clouds. I tried taking photos, but we can't really see the moon in the photos!
I gave up on it then (what's so special about seeing it anyway? It's not like I'm going to sit there and watch the whole thing), but just before going to bed (around 10:30 last night), I decided to try my luck one last time.
This time there was finally something to see!
Well, and that was it. I went to sleep after that. :P (I wasn't going to hang around waiting for the moon to go behind a cloud!)
Besides me, there were people from some houses higher up on the street who came out to see eclipse. The first and second time I went out, there was a child with his mother (or parents) from my block. I knew because I heard the child's voice. Then the last time I went out, it was someone from across the road. Unless if they were the same people and they had crossed the road to be able to see the moon.
Anyway, just for fun, here's another photo. Yesterday when throwing out my rubbish, I saw that my neighbour had thrown out an old car!
