hate to say it, but lunar eclipses are a bit boring, IMO......would rather be out with my telescope looking at the detail of the Lunar terminator, or slewing around the heavens.......very satisfying to know photons traveling for billions of years just made their journey complete landing directly on my retina.......lol, what were the odds of that happening at just the right time??? (think about it for a bit)......

PS: not that there's anything wrong with CCD imaging, that's fun too.....it just does not give me that direct "eyes on" WOW concept of the Universe, and finding a faint fuzzy in the eyepiece that is SO MANY light years away (in the catalog)......very humbling too.....the entire Milky Way Galaxy is not spit in the big scheme of things.....
