My phone isn't up to the task oh photographing the total lunar eclipse. But if you imagine it you'll see it's pretty awesome.
Edit: totality allowed me to get a terrible but recognizable photo:

A set I took while earths shadow was covering the moon. Couldn't get any thing but a reddish blur during totality though.

I have taken photos of the eclipse too:I got some good pics of the eclispe.
Strangely, the moon orientation in my photos is very similar to that of @JesseCuster, but is different from the moon orientation in your photos. Why is this? 100% PROOF OF FLAT EARTH?

Went to a nearby park with my gf and a bottle of wine. There were a bunch of other people scattered around us on an east facing slope. Lotsa nerds in this town.
Backup to before we left for the park, when a sundog showed up to kick off the festivities.

Walked around the block, following an almost totally cloudless day and warm sunshine, this lone cloud was seen hanging almost directly overhead. To my eye, it looked more like an enormous feather than it does in the photo.
As I got round the other side of the block two minutes later, I glance at it again to see a jet laying a short-lived contrail across it
My phone's clock is about 1-2mins slow so I hazard a guess the contrail was laid by MON408R Airbus A321 climbing through 30,000ft

How come your eclipse started at the upper right and moved left, mine started at the left and moved right. I'm in NY.

I think that the sorley's photos captured the end of the eclipse. In my location (England) the eclipse started at the upper left and moved right:
It didn't, his photos (and mine) show the moon coming out out eclipse. By the time the moon rose on the West Coast it was already fully eclipsed (pretty much)

Various clouds photographed today (11/10/2015) in Perth between 9am and 3:45pm, I think the urban 'heat island' kept them to the fringes of the metropolitan area.

Noticed this as I stepped out into my mum's garden this afternoon. I'm sure I've seen them before but not consciously and certainly wouldn't have been able to identify it for what it was - a fallstreak - due to previous ignorance so decided to take a snapshot of it on my phone.
I then set up the camcorder in timelapse as I was curious to how it may evolve. Of course, drifting out of frame was the answer lol.

Lots of people in southern England have been reporting fallstreaks today. I think this is the remains of a very old one, which has been slowly drifting in from the east.

Hmm ok.. lemme tinker with it, was trying to upload it from my work computer and the FW settings are a lil odd so I had to get.. creative lol. Give me a bit Trail and Ill fix it.
It's the new "Media" feature of the board, which is somewhat untested. You put it in a private album, and you'd need to change the privacy setting to "Everyone"

Except that "The media could not be loaded" on my phone. Never mind, I'll have a look when I get to a PC. Better be worth it after all this mind.

I'm not sure what to call this. This was taken at 5:30 pm, Oct. 23, 2015, our sunset was at 6:11, Bakersfield, CA. . The inverted arc seemed to be about 45 degrees above the sun.
From the time I first noticed it, it only lasted a minute or 2. 20 minutes later, 5:50 pm, it reappeared, still about 45 degrees above the setting sun, now being blocked by the houses of my back door neighbors.
I did add some contrast to these photos, the colors were not real brilliant, but there was definitely some prismatic action going on.
From Oct. 17, possibly a Kelvin-Helmholtz?

A much nicer example, Oct. 27, 2015, 5:15 pm PDT. I found out it's a circumzenithal arc.

Multiple cloud layers over the Missoula valley. I have seen at least eight. Eye altitude is 80
0 feet above the valley floor.

Standing waves over the island and Sound of Ulva, Scottish Hebrides last week. Ulva was the first thing the strong south-westerly wind off the Atlantic was hitting
Circumzenithal arc just now in Hampshire:

I've taken this photo with iPhone during lunch break and then rushed in for a proper camera. Sadly, CZA's gone by the time I've come back
