Lunar Eclipse 2010

Today was the Winter Solstice and Mother Nature threw in extra treats this morning, a full moon total lunar eclipse. The last time a total eclipse took place on the solstice was in 1638, over 400 years ago. The next one will not be until 2094. Quite a special event to be a guest, I would say. So for those of you that missed it, here are some photos I took as well as a video. Enjoy!!

























I wish you all a wonderful Solstice.

So glad you shared with us this defining moment in history. I didn't see the eclipse, (too superstitious) but I celebrate the Winter Solstice Festival today. Jessica, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
