A full lunar eclipse on the longest night and shortest day, yes. 2096. Obviously you didn't read my first post with all the information on it. It's not a big deal, since lunar eclipses happen so often. Who cares if it's on the longest night? Damn near always happen a little after midnight anyway, so it's always dark out anyway. What camera do you have, anyway?

Doesn't look all that bright.
And it doesn't matter if its on the longest night or something, a lunar eclipse is still a lunar eclipse.

Just see the next one in a few years. I don't know why people are making such a huge deal out of this. It happens every two to three years. The only thing that makes this one special is it fell on winter solstice. Ooh. It's still fun to look at every few years. It's not like it happens every day. We celebrate birthdays and those happen every year. Hell, here we celebrate Fridays. Because there's no real significance to it landing on the solstice. Birthdays represent another year of life, Fridays represent a break from the work/school week. Lunar eclipse on the Solstice represents...a measurable incident that has no significance beyond its rarity. It doesn't actually mean anything.

Yeah, but I usually look at every total eclipse, regardless of what day it lands on. It's a fun thing to celebrate "just because."

You forgot to turn the flash on. It goes on automatically. I had to turn it off, because it was worse with it on. lol. It was a joke. A flash won't do anything for something that far away.

When it happens really changes nothing as far as your experience goes... if you saw it a week, month or a day prior to this, what you saw would really be the exact same thing. i missed it but im not too worried about it. now if i missed a solar eclipse, id be blowing some steam.
