Details:
The image shows the Moon at the instant of maximum eclipse (01:13 UTC-3), when obscuration was 96.4%. The white penumbral cap, although small (3.6% of the disk only), was roughly 1 magnitude brighter than the rest of reddish disk of the Moon (that remained in the umbra). Fifteen photos, taken with a Seestar S50 telescope, were stacked with Registax to produce the image shown.
