Sophie, some feedback for you. I found its extremely difficult to read the dark text on a dark background. Maybe its my Firefox defaulting to dark mode & no allowance for that on your site setup but You can see on my screenshot the problem. Good luck. Nature needs to win against human destruction!

My Eclipse crime was to miss it (busy with work is the sad excuse) but I caught the tail end of it. Also posting a picture a colleague captured of the full blood moon.
A half illuminated moon photo with the Earth's shadow across half the disk of the moon. The image sits in a completely black surround as my camera doesn't do "moon and star" shots well!Photo from someone who did capture the blood moon in a clear dark blue sky. The red ball of the moon is seen behind some lit up green leafy trees and a telegraph pole with wires radiating out.

Is this proof of life after death? courtesy of reused transponder IDs and @flightradar24.com we can imagine the spirit of this old Delta Mad Dog reincarnated and playing in the skies over central Thailand. What a lovely thought
Screenshot of a small aircraft on a flightradar24 flight tracking map in which the transponder code correlares with the old code of a now broken up Delta MD90 which is pictured in the FR24 app as incorrectly representing the image of the small plane over rural Thailand. This invokes the Buddhist idea of re-incarnation with the spirit of the old Delta plane now free of its mortal bonds happily flying on in quieter skies.

Venitian diamond above the city at dawn.
Dawn (pre-sunrise) over Bangkok City scape with many high rise buildings and lights still on. Strands of cloud help make the orange-red glow in the lower sky all the more dramatic whilst high above a thicker distant cloudbank the dark blue sky contains one white shining Diamond which is Venus.

Last night VH-OGB A321-XLR #2 for QF also did the great leap from XFW-BKK but like the forgotten step child it didn't have 8000+ followers on @flightradar24.com even FR24's photo was the former VH-OGB, a 767! I watched him arrive on a crystal clear night still a marvel for so small to fly so far!

Visiting Victorville's vast aviation storage vault! Over 100 Ex FedEx DC-10/MD11 trijets alone, even a handful of 727s too plus multiple other aircraft types of varied histories and schemes. 18 Qantas 717s and two of their now tail-less A380s also of note. An awesome site/sight in the desert! 😍

Bali's ogoh-ogoh competition the evening before Nyepi, the day of silence where everyone must stay home for 24 hours and make no sound/not allow light to be seen through their windows. Even the International airport is closed making this the strictest lockdown event in the world. Rather special!

Good try, rather more foreign though. It's a 737-900ER. The additional exits rearward to the dual overwing emergency exits by which the flight attendant (FA) is stood are key indicators and the uniform of the FA is of Lion Air, an Indonesian budget carrier. OK, it was a tough one😉
