On September 27 there was a Lunar Eclipse with the Moon at Perigee. The Moon was 14% larger  then we normally observe it because it is at its closest approach to the Earth in its orbit.

Total Lunar Eclipse

The weather was not cooperating very much. We were having rain and heavy cloud cover but I was able to shoot some of the Lunar Eclipse through holes in the clouds.
