Hurray, the skies were clear !!!



During the whole day, there were clouds, only clouds.
But the moment when the moon entered umbra,
suddenly all clouds disappeared.
I have no idea where they had gone, but it was all clear !

I had a superb view on the eclipsing moon.
Unfortunately, the totality was rather dark, so that the expected red glow was more grey-brown.
But let's be happy that there was something to see at all !
