PICS: Total full moon eclipse, as seen by our readers

Stargazers across the country were treated to a rare spectacle on Friday night as the sky played host to the longest lunar eclipse of the whole 21st century.

The total full moon eclipse lasted just under two hours, giving viewers enough time to whip out their telescopes and long lenses, in the hopes of capturing the experience.

Thanks to clear skies and perfect conditions for most of the evening, our readers on the North Coast were able to snap some incredible pics throughout the event!

Photos from around the world

Although the eclipse could only be viewed from certain parts of the world, those who did catch a glimpse of it managed to capture some mind blowing images.

Here are a few pics we found:
