Sep 17, 2024 ; Lunar Disc - 9:52 PM – 12:14 AM EDT (New York Time), Foreground – 09:21 PM EDT (New York Time)

Body: Canon EOS 5D Mark III, Lens: Canon EF 24-70 mm F2.8 L Lens
Description:
This is a cropped composite of lunar images shot at 31 mm FL and each disk spaced 2.5 minutes apart. I took image of the moon every 30s on an intervalometer. A composite of lunar disc from 9:52 pm to 12:14 am EDT shows the progression of the eclipse from Penumbral to Partial to Penumbral phase. Heavy passage of clouds messed up the exposures of many lunar discs, I tried my best to normalize them. Also, a thick passage of cloud after the partial eclipse resulted in missed transit of the penumbral eclipsed moon (top right in this pic). The lunar discs are spaced 2.5 minutes apart. The background of the partially clear sky was added from a foreground shot I took at 9:21 pm EDT. All the lunar and partially clear sky images were imported into Adobe Photoshop 2024 and stacked in Lighten mode
