It's been a while since I've posted a beautiful time lapse video, so here's one that should do the trick: "Between the Raindrops", by Peter Cox. It shows some inclement weather in Ireland, but ends with a lovely astronomical sight: a lunar eclipse setting over some hills. Make sure to set it to be full screen!

I guess this means Ireland is on my list of Places I Must See now, too. That list is getting mighty long.
