I noticed that the moon was near Denebola, a bright star in the constellation Leo. Is that it, in the lower right quarter of the photo?

Thanks for the picture…it was cloudy over much of the eastern United States so we couldn’t see it.

Just as the photo shows, it is during a full eclipse that the moon truly appears like a globe. Not just as the shiny disc we are used to, but a huge rounded sphere.

It would be cool if we had 3 large moons so we can see the moons like this.
