Really clear here in Pittsburgh but man was it COLD!!! Temp was around 10 degrees when the eclipse was over. I got some good pics though. I'll post a link later.

I missed it due to the clouds and rain.

Eclipsed Moonlight
Credit & Copyright: Jerry Lodriguss (Catching the Light)
Explanation: Moon watchers blessed with clear skies over the Americas, Europe, Africa and western Asia enjoyed a total lunar eclipse this week. Catching eclipsed moonlight, astroimager Jerry Lodriguss offers this view of the inspiring celestial event with the shadowed Moon accompanied by wandering planet Saturn at the left, and bright Regulus, alpha star of the constellation Leo, above. The engaging composite picture was made by combining a filtered, telephoto image of the Moon and surrounding starfield with a telescopic exposure. The combination dramatizes the reddened moonlight while clearly showing the variation of brightness and color in Earth's not-so-dark shadow across the lunar surface.

I took this pictures with my telescope and Sony camera. Couldn't get a lot because I had class 'til 9 PM and it was mostly cloudy.
