“Phases of a Lunar Eclipse”

I captured this composite of the September 7, 2025 total lunar eclipse using my 150/750 EQ telescope and a smartphone camera.
At the center is the Moon in totality, glowing deep red, while around it I arranged the different phases – from the first shadow, through the Blood Moon, and finally back to the bright full Moon.

I wanted to show the whole journey of the eclipse in one frame, almost like a time-lapse of the night sky.
This was a special moment for me because I used only a simple telescope and phone camera, proving that with patience and passion, anyone can capture the beauty of our universe.
