Lunar eclipse, winter solstice and sub zero!!

Today feels spookily special...I crept out of bed at 6.30 am, grabbed a collection of cameras old new and other family members and headed outside (where it was -12 degrees and the frost so thick it looked like a fine covering of sparkling diamonds)...
Why? I hear you cry....

This is why! A full moon, a lunar eclipse AND all on the winter solstice!

Today is not only a full moon, which has been totally eclipsed, but also the shortest day of the year.
I love it when the tide of light begins to turn the other way and the days slowly get longer...
So here's wishing us all the best loony magic, light, warmth and health in the midst of the darkest nights XXX
