    This was much more typical of the night, if the moon was visible at all.

    And just after the full eclipse. I hadn't expected to get this at all. The clouds had moved in and parked, with nothing visible since the time of the 3rd photo. I got a break in them long enough to get this, then they moved back in, this time for good.

    Best I can say about these is it proves I was awake and saw the eclipse, even if I did watch a portion of it on Stellarium instead (nifty program, and it changed the moon's color and everything)

    We were both up together then! Stellarium is a great program - I use it to control my Celestron telescope. I was a bit luckier than you as the clouds cleared up just long enough for me to get some shots.
