Great capture, yamaniac.
One clarification: has the photo inadvertently been reversed? The eclipse proceeded from left to right in this hemisphere. Or have you taken this photograph after the full eclipse ie in the waning stage?

Made it a point to watch this century's longest lunar eclipse. The sky was overcast with monsoon clouds but I persisted and was rewarded with a beautiful sight at around 1.10 AM on Saturday morning. Shot over 200 pictures in the time-span of an hour with my point and shoot camera. Canon Powershot SX480 HS, Trivandrum, 28/7/2018.

Extremely nice snaps!
Was waiting desperately for this phenomenon but Delhi was totally clouded out.
What software did you use for stitching together the moon phases?

Yes, beautiful shots and a nice presentation. It is at times, such as these, when you are alone and watching the spectacle unfold, that you realise just how insignificant we are.

@shekatkar31

I presume the question was directed to me. The photos have minimum modification, the collage was created in Adobe Photoshop.
