It is a firefly...


It is a flashing speck of dirt!

No, it is a TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE :-D!

Am up and awake to check out the eclipse. It looks awesome cool :-D! If you are in the americas/australia/eastern asia, go poke your head out of the window right now (exact details here).

Yeah, am sleepy now. Tata folks... zzzzzzzzzz!

p.s. Did you say my camera sucks at astronomy pictures? Yeah, I already know :-)!

I didn't even think about using my camera to take the picture of the moon during eclipse ;-) Was the moon red in color during the eclipse?

I had gotten really excited about some shooting star thing last year when I actually woke Inder from sleep around 12 am and we both drove in the night to an unlit woods area so we could observe the "beautiful" sky. Only we could see nothing. :-(

Good you got something ... :-)

Archana said...

Krishna - welcome aboard!

Rads - indha nakkal konjam over-aa illai!!

SK - I did not stay up either. Used an alarm. Boy, was I disoriented when it rang!!!

Archana - somehow these shooting star/meteorite thingies always flop for me too :-(! At least there were no clouds to hinder lunar eclipse viewing - phew :-D!
