I got a few images of tonight's partial lunar eclipse
from my front deck tonight.
It was so windy I had to lean against the front porch post,
open the aperture,
and increase the shutter speed.
Hand held.
Hand held.

I went back inside to watch Q and A - which was a disappointment.
Simon Crean made the complete "Goose" of himself, (which did not surprise me - I always thought he was a total "Goose", but some of my old left wing friends seemed think he was all right).
Barnaby Joyce kept offering him advice on PR. That's really bad!
When I came back out, this was the situation.

Then the sky went cloudy on me, once the moon returned to its full glory.
There are lots of things happening at present:
For example, there is a King Tide (linked to the full moon, no doubt). But coinciding with a strong East Coast Low, it could be higher than anticipated on the traditional tide charts.
