28 August 2026 partial lunar eclipse montage and images taken at maximum eclipse

I was able to get some intermittent images of this morning's lunar eclipse over a two hour period in between rain showers and was entirely clouded out just after maximum eclipse at 05:12 with the moon just 10 degrees above the horizon. Two cameras were used; a Sony ZV-E10 milc camera with a 350mm zoom lens and a Dwarf Mini smart scope. Coming two weeks after the total solar eclipse, this lunar eclipse on Earth was almost, but not quite total, but did show some reddish/coppery hues and looked quite striking in binoculars.
