Lunar eclipse July 27th 2018

As usual, we had great weather for weeks, but the night of the lunar eclipse, there were clouds and haze on the horizon, so we saw nothing of the totality, but got to see the moon after totality. I was trying to take longer exposures to get the redness of the rest of the Moon, but due to the haze, the overexposed parts glowed over the red parts, so I had to give it up. I did take some photos before the clouds rolled in and obscured the Moon again.
I used a Williams Optics Star71 with a ZWO ASI178MC at different setting from first to last to get the colors and the exposure almost the same for the different images. Exposure from 5-10 ms and gain from 0 to 175. Firecapture for capturing, and AS!3 for stacking.
