Pictures from the eclipse of the moon 2008 08 16

I saw during my way home from the old town in Vilnius, at the 2008.08.16, about 20.40, the full moon and decide to make a picture. Later, as I was home (22.39) it was a suprise, I just saw a small part of the moon - how that?

And the crescent of the moon was on the top - wow, it should be an eclipse of the moon, so I shot some pictures too and saw in the picture the lower part of the moon.

A view from my window showed me, the moon is still full at the 2008 08 18 evening (20:18) - the line is an airplane which is landing in Vilnius. The double moon is mirrowed on my window, this picture I shot thruugh the closed window.

here the only moon in full resulution at this day - 2008 08 18 - 20:39, if someone want he can use it to make another picture more interesting or a joke, the diameter is 160 pix.

A sample to set the moon in another picture, just a joke because if you see the sunset in front of you, it should be not possible to see the full moon there too.
