An Almost Total Lunar Eclipse.

Captured in this telephoto snapshot, the lunar disk is not quite entirely immersed in Earth’s dark umbral shadow during a long partial lunar eclipse.

The partial eclipse was deep though, deep enough to show the dimmed but reddened light in Earth’s shadow.

That’s a sight often anticipated by fans of total lunar eclipses.
