Still got an hour to wait here in Perth.

Moon will be nearly fully eclipsed when it rises so it should be "blood" from the start.

Have to head out to find a clear view of the horizon. Too many trees in the park over the road.

Nearly fully eclipsed, but no red.   Just love the shadow moon effect of the double glazed window.

Perfect skies in Cairns, as expected, not bad but would look good with a camera with a zoom lense.

It was pretty good here in Bendigo, pretty clear overall. But I really need a tripod for the photos, the bonnet of the Suby wasn't quite the same!

Have had very limited opportunities to take pics inbetween breaks in the clouds here, but this i thought was ok considering i've not taken pics of the moon previously. I probably should have read up on what settings to use before trying though...lol

Just look at the moon any night with bloodshot eyes, you can get the same result.
