Anybody else watching the eclipse of the moon. A red moon that will not happen again until 2033. Here in east Wisconsin it's starting at 8:10pm. It will be a while before it turns red.

I "tried" to get a few pictures. Had I taken one of my old film cameras I would have done pretty good. Auto focus sucks and it is next to imposssible to manually focus pushing buttons in the dark. Today you need to spend a couple grand to get a camera that does what a used k1000 can do thats worth $50. On the other hand them digital cameras take great pictures in good conditons with a 3year old holding them, or a monkey for that matter.

I agree about the camera so I didn't even try. But, I didn't have much of a chance. Just as the moon began to shine nice and pink the clouds came back.
