Lunar eclipse photos from EarthSky
During the deep partial lunar eclipse of November 18-19, 2021, some 97% of the moon was submerged in Earth’s shadow. The moon took on the coppery red color characteristic of a total lunar eclipse. This eclipse was particularly viewable from North America. And EarthSky heard from many observers – both at our community photo page and at EarthSky Facebook – who saw the eclipse. It was grand! Our thanks to all who contributed photos!

It was a beautiful sight to see.” It was, wasn’t it? Thank you, Lorraine!

Photos were taken in the Heavenly Backyard garden using the Orion EON 130mm refractor telescope. There were periods of dense cloud cover which caused some of the middle images to be a bit blurry, as I had to work around the brief cloud openings but the sky clear just before the maximum portion of the eclipse.” Great work, Patrick!

Marsha wrote: “With the weather forecast for clouds, I honestly didn’t think I would see the eclipse and went to sleep. I awoke shortly before 1:00 a.m., threw on a jacket and went outside. There it was! Shining through a thin layer of clouds. I ran inside and grabbed my camera and tripod. I was able to get this photo before the clouds thickened up and the moon disappeared.” Thank you, Marsha!
