Friday 27th July. 

Blood Moon over Samarkand. 

Today I spent the morning doing some office work whilst Mette and Jamie got a massage. 
In the afternoon we visited the Bazar and then in the evening we went to Registan Square. 
There was a lunar eclipse (blood moon) that started at 10:15pm until 04:30am. Central Asia is one of the best places to see it so I set the alarm clock at 1am to get a quick photo. I have only used my iPhone so I couldn’t get an amazing picture but I managed to see it. Before the lunar eclipse the moon was very bright and lit up the night sky beautifully. It was also possible to see Mars below the moon.
