The partial eclipse of the Moon of November 19

The partial eclipse of the Moon of November 19, 2021, with the Moon below the Pleiades star cluster, M45, and near the Hyades cluster and Aldebaran at right, all in Taurus, the hallmark setting of this eclipse, which at maximum (about 20 minutes before this sequence was taken at 2:22 am MST) was 97% partial, so not quite total. Orion is at left. A large portion of the Moon was outside the umbra and bright when this sequence was shot. The long exposures inevitably add the glow around the Moon, from the bright portion of its disk still in full sunlight and from some light haze in the sky, which added the sky gradients and star glows. But this is an authentic scene, not a Moon pasted onto a sky background taken on another night to simulate the scene. Taken from a site near Rowley, Alberta after a chase north to get out from under clouds and haze into clearer skies to allow exposures like this to record the starfield. This is a stack of 2 x 30-second exposures at ISO 1600 for the base sky, blended with 15s, 5s, 1.6s, and 0.5s exposures at ISO 800, all with the Canon EOS R6 camera and Canon RF28-70mm lens at 33mm and f/2.8 and on the Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer Mini tracker. Images blended with luminosity masks created with ADP Panel Pro/LumiFlow, but with manual manipulation to smooth the blend. (Photo by: Alan Dyer/VW Pics /Universal Images Group via Getty Images)
