Lunar Eclipse of 20 February 2008, from San Francisco

Turned out that Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2008, was a good evening for an eclipse. In the middle of a series of rain storms, the weather cleared for a while in San Francisco and right on schedule the full moon arose in the east, already obscured by Earth's shadow. Here it is, viewed from San Francisco's Potrero Hill. Also, check out my photos of the Aug. 28, 2007 lunar eclipse.
