Awesome captures! I especially like the first, because it almost looks like it was taken from another planet (without looking fake).

Thanks. Some slight cropping was all the manipulation the image got. During totality the Moon was dim enough that the stars were visible and downtown Reno was about a mile and a half behind me so the light (usually light pollution is a bad thing) from the city lit the foothills. Mostly good fortune. BTW, for those of us that were lucky enough to have good weather, the last time there was an eclipse, a blue moon and a supermoon at the same time was 150 years ago.
