I didn't get up early enough to do a "series" of moon shots, which I think is the best way to handle the eclipse, but I did get outside around the time of the full lunar eclipse. Here is my best shot.
This is a straight out of the camera with no cropping (converted from raw, but no editing other than to reduce size and add a border).
Shot with a 400mm lens for 1 second at f/5.6 and ISO 1600.
I tried longer exposures at lower ISOs. I also tried using a doubler to zoom in closer (which *really* lengthened the exposure as my largest aperture became f/11). But I found that anything longer than a second and two things happened: the moon moved too much, and the wind also affected the camera even though I was on a short tripod. Either way, exposures longer than a second were too blurry for a decent picture.
