I was super excited to find out we would be having a super blue blood moon in a few hours. and then extremely disappointed to find out I won't be able to witness it in person where I live. Nasa will have a livestream to showcase the event. Since I won't be able to see the best of it I decided to get a test shot now.
It is really beautiful out tonight, at least where I live!
I will try to take some more shots when it starts and will show you guys what I get.
The link below shows a map of times and the best place to see it. I have taken an excerpt from that linked site below.

"...“For the (continental) U.S., the viewing will be best in the West,” said Gordon Johnston, program executive and lunar blogger at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “Set your alarm early and go out and take a look.”
The Jan. 31 full moon is special for three reasons: it’s the third in a series of “supermoons,” when the Moon is closer to Earth in its orbit -- known as perigee -- and about 14 percent brighter than usual. It’s also the second full moon of the month, commonly known as a “blue moon.” The super blue moon will pass through Earth’s shadow to give viewers in the right location a total lunar eclipse. While the Moon is in the Earth’s shadow it will take on a reddish tint, known as a “blood moon.”"
