Star and elephant fans attended Sunday night the phenomenon known as the "Giant Blood Wolf Moon" in several places around the world.
The total eclipse of the red moon shortly after 21:00 in Los Angeles sparked enthusiasm at the Griffith Observatory, located near the famous Hollywood sign, with a special ceremony attended by more than 1,500 people.

Preparations for photographers at Kenneth Han Park in California:
Los Angeles was more likely to see the phenomenon in a festive atmosphere, unlike other parts of the central and northeastern United States, which were canceled due to frost.
But the eclipse was evident to the naked eye in all parts of the United States bearing the same name.
In Atlanta, Georgia, some went out to watch him indifferent to the cold:
The moon did not completely disappear during the total eclipse, but at its peak the entire surface of the moon sank in an orange-red glow that earned it the name of a bloody moon.
The reason for this redness is the flow of sunlight through the atmosphere of dusty and polluted land as the moon enters our planet.
In Miami, Florida:
The eclipse occurs at a time when the moon reaches a point in its orbit that brings it closer to the Earth, what the name "giant moon" has earned.
He was named "Moon of the Wolf" for his appearance in January, when wolves were starving outside US villages.
The complete eclipse lasted an hour. It was the best area of vision in the Americas and 2.8 billion people could follow it in the Western Hemisphere, Europe, West Africa and northern Russia.
