7 Stunning Photos Of The Blood Moon Eclipse
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) - California and several other states in the western United States got front row seats early Wednesday morning to the second and final total eclipse in the "Blood Moon" tetrad series of 2014.
During the time of the total eclipse, the moon looks reddish because of the sunsets and sunrises from the Earth reflecting onto the lunar eclipse. The phenomenon, which can only happen when the Earth and moon are perfectly aligned, lasted between 2-9 minutes, depending on where you viewed it from.
Low clouds made for poor visibility in the Bay Area, but several great photos of the event were snapped elsewhere. Here are a few of the best.
