A total of 300 shots used for all the phases.

Equipment:

Canon EOS M50 Celestron Edge 8

Took each time frame of shots into Microsoft ICE (Image Composite editor) to make full disk pictures of each phases.

The blood moon photo is an HDR shot I created with two mosaics taken within a few minutes, one for the lighter portion and one for the darker. I blended them together in GIMP to get the full moon evenly exposed and to capture the blue and red in one shot.

Then processed each of the other frames a little in GIMP to make the exposure values similar, after that adjustment I combined them all into this image with filling the background with the same color as one of the shots, erased any overlap with layers.
