Oh what a night...

late December and all that, but this year it's particularly magical as we experience the lowest temperatures in the UK for many Christmases and today, the winter solstice, also brought a Lunar Eclipse: The BBC has some great shots here .



I celebrated by getting my Father's old telescope out of storage and finally getting it working.








The cloud cover was too dense at the actual moment of the eclipse but the sky was pretty spectacular over the sea as a result.


Rob celebrated by sleeping out in the snow in preparation for Arctic nights to come.
