Slightly off topic...

Has anyone seen a picture (ideally a photograph) of how a lunar eclipse
looks from the Moon (from there, it would be a solar eclipse). In total
lunar eclipses the Moon usually gets a reddish tint, apparently from
sunset-like light all around the Earth (as seen from the Moon), I'd like to
see this.
