Professional and amateur photographers alike were out to capture this celestial phenomena to share with the world and some, for personal memory. I did take some shots but first, wanted to make a comparison of the cameras that are available to record history. The one immediately below is not one I own but one that others may use to get some great shots full of detail and telescopic dimension.

Here are a few facts about the Super Blue Blood Moon to remember when it comes around to this part of the world for viewing once again. This combination will not take place until January 31, 2037 and that is 19 years into the future from this present year....
- Super-moon - when the orbiting body is closest to the earth
- Lunar Eclipse - when the moon passes into earth's shadow
- Blood-moon - the whitish moon becomes red or ruddy brown when in full eclipse
- Blue-moon - when two full moons happen in the same month
The Universe is unending in its mystery. As cosmology in astronomy and astrophysics expand in knowledge, the more unending it becomes. God, as Creator and in His infinity, is endless as well. He is beyond our human comprehension - we learn in part but not fully in our human capacity of understanding. It is only when we see Him face to face that the veil will be removed. He is all in all. Psalm 191 says.... "The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands".
Until we meet again at The Turn-Up Patch in two weeks on Monday, February 26....
