saxon had its inaugural event to view the Blood Moon on 8th October 2014.

The Moon was very shy that night, peeking out of the clouds intermittently throughout the event. Those who persevered were lucky enough to catch the Moon blush during the very brief moment the clouds parted.

Despite this, the energy from the crowd was amazing. Lots of questions were asked and answered, and we hope you enjoyed the informative talk by Graham. We could also see everyone trying out the different scopes and binoculars, with the most common reaction realising that telescopes were actually quite affordable.

We've uploaded a few photos of the event below. You can view the full album at our Facebook page.

We're also running a Facebook competition, so jump on it right now!
