Lunar Eclipse Collage

This was a pretty cool eclipse - the weather was absolutely perfect, the company was wonderful, and I even managed to get decent photos of it! We had some wispy clouds here and there, but for the most part the sky around the moon was clear.

I wanted to stay up and take photos in the other direction, but good sense got the better of me - it's hard enough to chase a toddler on a decent night of sleep!

Settings:
full moon - ISO 100, f/11, 1/100s
partial eclipse 1-4 (upper right photos) - ISO 200, f/11, 1/100s
partial eclipse 5-6 (top lower left photos) - ISO 200, f/8, 1/100s
partial eclipse 7 (bottom leftmost photo) - ISO 400, f/5.6, 1/30s
partial eclipse 8 (mostly red) - ISO 400, f/8, 1s
full eclipse - ISO 400, f/5.6, 1s

All taken on Canon SL1, 200mm lens using manual focus.
