The eclipse portion of Super Blood Wolf Moon 2019 is well underway. I almost did not step outside because the forecast suggested it would be overcast.

The lunar eclipse approaches near totality. I reduce contrast in this exposure to give the moon some context...two of the palm trees in my back yard are just visible

Super Blood Wolf Moon 2019 approaches totality

The sky is overcast when I step outside at peak totality...but I hang around a bit after and notice that the moon faintly appears from time to time. As soon as the clouds thin enough to see the moon, I snap a picture. This is roughly eight minutes after peak totality, but the Earth's shadow is still completely covering the moon.
