I used only 3 photographs of the eclipse to achieve this HDR, where in photoshop I merged them to achieve this effect.

Image Details:

Lunar eclipses occur when Earth's shadow blocks the sun's light, which otherwise reflects off the moon. There are three types — total, partial and penumbral — with the most dramatic being a total lunar eclipse, in which Earth's shadow completely covers the moon. This eclipse will be special and historic, as it will be the longest lunar eclipse of the entire century. The entire event will last about six hours. And it is special not because of the duration of itself, but also because this event will not be repeated for 580 years. I was there from 4:00 am, capturing how the shadow of the earth was gradually darkening the moon, until around 5:45 am, where it was close to reaching its maximum, where I could see how it was dyed red. Afterwards, i made this moon HDR of its peak eclipse.
