What a perfect subject for my return to Skywatch Friday after a "life got in the way" (i.e. I had no time to shoot much of anything, including skies) hiatus that went on far too long. I had a fantastic and completely unobstructed view of last night's lunar eclipse right from my patio. Even the clouds stayed away until after the moon was completely covered. Here are a few images of the eclipse as it happened, and then a collage showing how it progressed.
Enjoy!

I love the collage especially.
What an interesting universe we live in.
Oh, good for you! I always like coming to your blog and entering through the kitchen...
How cool! Unfortunately we didn't get to see that here in Canada!
Terrific sequence of lunar eclipse shots.
A beautiful show on your side of the world.
Nice work Robin!
So gloriously beautiful!
The moon on a clear dark night just fascinates me!
And an eclipse is even more special.
FABULOUS photos! Great job!
I watched it last night too. I wanted to take a shot but my camera isn't good enough. Yours are fantastic.
Happy sky watching!

Great capture!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Nicely captured. I live in a part of the world where the eclipse wasn't visible so it's nice to see these photos!
I didn't get to see the eclipse, so it was especially nice to come and find your wonderful photographs of it here!

Clouds always get in the way of things here, as you can imagine.

Really cool shots! Mine didn't turn out very blogworthy :)
But I have to say that my favorite part of the eclipse was after the moon turned completely dark, and was hanging there like a deep red ball... so awesome!
