I got up at 5am to watch the eclipse. I could definitely see the reddish blood moon but it was rather hazy, whether this was due to it being somewhat obscured by high cloud/mist or my eyesight deteriorating I`m not sure.

There is a lovely widefield video of the eclipse that I came across here:
https://vimeo.com/312478122

It is widefield so does not show the lunar disk in detail, but instead shows how dark the sky becomes during totality - when the stars pop out from the night sky, back to when the moon comes out of totality and 'washes out' the sky with its light (and when the stars become much harder to discern again).
