Total Lunar Eclipse - 15 June 2011
After 3 years I could see this phenomenon again. It is a nice show and you do not need any expensive lenses for observing. The beginning was hiden behind clouds, so nothing was visible. After a while the sky was getting clearer a clearer and finally I could see our Moon in red colours. There are some photos.
