Lunar Eclipse Composite

Below is my composite of the Lunar Eclipse from Sunday 9-27-15.  The photos were taken with the Boothe Memorial Astronomy Society at the Observatory in Stratford, CT.  I used Photoshop to combine the images and Picasa3 to label the times.  I am new to Photoshop which is why it took so long to process the images.  Also, the my scope had some dew on the objective lens but they still came out OK.  I was happy to get anything at all.  Next time I will connect the anti-dew heating straps earlier to avoid this problem.
