APOD 1.8

This picture of an eclipse at moonrise was made Astronomy Picture of the Day on October 11, 2014. During the lunar eclipse on October 8, this composite time exposure image was taken of the moon by Zhou Yannan as it rose over Chongqing, China. Fully encompassing the moon, the eclipse made a 'blood moon' effect as the full shadow of the Earth covered the moon.
