It was quite foggy, with the moon barely distinguishable from the sky, and the Moon 6.5 degrees above the horizon (not taking into account the surrounding mountains). Picture taken at 21:54, July 27 46.2N 6.24E.

Thank you
Nice photos especially with the people on the frame
In my  first two photos in iso 2500 I noticed white spots on the moon -is it dead pixels?
I also noticed some in Fons pictures

[Fons Baerken]

My shots were at iso 8000, the full moon was passing through the sign of capricornus (astronomy), we distuingished the star of deneb showing as a bright spot, also looking at the nightsky there were satellites passing over.

I would say so, if you zoom in on your screen with the original image file you will see them. Not hard to clone out if you plan to print it large..

Fons dots are likely stars, I don't see any on his moon.

The ISS passed very clear here around 22:30

We got up a 3:00AM here in Singapore and were rewarded with a very nice view! Not so common with our mostly cloudy conditions.

This was my last one before the cold chased me indoors.

This was one of my last ones, not exactly a Blood Moon anymore, but an opportunity to explore the D850 in Dx and silent mode. Giving me an equivalent of a 600mm.

Erik and Alaun idea to include the city works really well

By chance, I also got some tracks from the man on the moon

Akira-   Did you get through the typhoon ok?

Arthur, thank you for your concern and advice.  The typhoon took the course towards the west, so there were no significant effect on the eastern area including Tokyo.  I'm more concerned about the western part of Japan that has already been severely damaged by the recent insanely heavy rainfall.
