Consider bracketing while you're taking photos so you can review and pick later. The moon will be unevenly illuminated as the eclipse proceeds, plus exposure settings can change from minute to minute, so it's easy to overexpose or underexpose part of the moon.


I took this one a few years ago using in-camera HDR on a Pentax K-5. I was surprised it worked this well, but I did have the camera on a tracking mount to compensate for movement between frames.

That’s excellent, far better than my attempts. Have a few of the blood moon too.
This is with the K1 + DA* 300mm. No HDR or pp.

Perfect night here on the West coast of the Nth Island New Zealand. But a tricky subject. Not much surface detail due to the straight on light.
K-1 and old Soligor 800mm.

Clouds! Also the moon was on an inconvenient track. Winter lunar eclipses are very cold but in a better spot for me.

Next up for northern parts of the globe, an annular solar eclipse on June 10th. For me, a partial lunar eclipse on November 18th.
