While spending some time at the Northsea / Jadebusen this Total Lunar Eclipse took place. I went up the the waterfront and I had some clear sight to the Moonrise. As the Moon was totally eclipsed I found it still close to the horizon about 35 minutes later. The images show it already about 10 minutes earlier.
