Taken by yours truly using his wobbly hands and a Sony DSC H2 camera from the backyard between 8 PM and 10:30 PM.
I thought I'd see a reddish hue as noted here. It was better. It was blue. A pebble in the sky. Magnificent.

Very weird, I've only ever seen reddish orange eclipses -- Was it visually blue, or could it be an artifact of your camera? Is there a lot of pollution where you are? Have you made any rash statements lately concnerning blue moons? ;-)

Very nice ... did u do any post processing ? BBC shows reddish moon , did it turn blue first and then red ?

The wife says she saw reddish hue. The above colors may be the camera's night vision doing tricks.
