Details:
The Lunar eclipse of 18-19 November was only considered a "partial eclipse" but with 97% coverage it was pretty close to a total eclipse. However, that last 3% of the illuminated limb of the Moon was enough to make photography a challenge because its brightness overwhelmed the remainder of the lunar disk as well as the nearby Pleiades and Hyades star clusters.
The wider field of view was shot at ISO 800, f/8, 80mm and at multiple shutter speeds. HDR blending was done and then tweaked to brighten the stars while keeping the Moon dark.
The tightly cropped image was shot at ISO 800, f/8, and 4 seconds at a focal length of 200 mm.
