My son spotted it and called my attention to it while driving around Ajuwon, Akute, Lagos this evening. It was quite big and fascinating!

Driving kwa?

How can he/she afford fuel...?..After consistently begging for Nairaland to be monetized so they can pay him/her for all the gibberish they post on this platform

Moreover, that picture was taken from a very safe distance from the MAIN ROAD.

Invariably from his/her house directly.

The statement an accompanying picture, shows someone very COMFORTABLE in their environment.

The chap lives very close to the express road and is basically surrounded by Bushes cool
😊😀😊😀 My hand no de for this one o

My observation from this thread is that Nigeria is not one time zone. It wasn't yet dark in the East when the Op posted that picture of thick darkness and I was wandering if it was yesterday's moon in such a dark world.

Lagos is basically 12 minutes ahead of UTC. Guys in the east are the real owners of the West African Time. If you've lived in Lagos all your life, 6am would be like 8am to you in places like Yola. East should actually go dark first.

Nigeria—on Sunday, September 7, 2025. The event unfolds as follows (times are West Africa Time – WAT):

Penumbral eclipse begins: 6:47 pm

Partial eclipse begins: ~6:30 pm, though still below the horizon for early observers

Moonrise: 6:47 pm; the eclipse will already be underway and the Moon will appear very low on the eastern horizon, potentially making it hard to see until it rises further

Maximum eclipse (totality): approximately 7:11 pm

Total eclipse ends: around 7:52 pm

Partial eclipse ends: around 8:56 pm

Penumbral eclipse ends: around 9:55 pm
I saw the partial around after 8pm

Have you spotted the blood moon? It started changing like 7 mins ago. It should last for 80 mins in my location, so I should be able to have better view than the photos below
frankly, I didn't even bother to look, neither do I care.

It's not important to see it, especially when you can't use it....
Seems this perception is what you have about money..

Are you seriously saying this to me?

Okay, let's say it's money. What use is it when you can never use it? But just simply see it?

Your son taking the picture makes it even more impressive. If a 5-year-old can capture the blood moon that clearly on a Phantom X2, it says a lot about how easy Tecno makes photography on their phones.

Quick facts

A blood moon is a fascinating phenomenon that occurs during a total lunar eclipse. Here’s what causes that dramatic red glow:

Earth's Shadow: During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth passes directly between the sun and the moon, casting a shadow on the moon.
Rayleigh Scattering: As sunlight passes through Earth's atmosphere, it scatters. Blue light is scattered more than red light, which is why the moon appears red. This effect is similar to why sunsets often look red or orange.
Atmospheric Conditions: The presence of dust, smoke, or haze in the atmosphere can enhance the red color, making the moon appear even more vibrant.
So, the next time you see a blood moon, you’re witnessing a beautiful interplay of light and shadow
