Greetings from the Critique Club!

Very good attempt especially with exposure, at capturing a difficult subject - after all it is big, brightly lit and moving, even if very slowly. The partial eclipse is a bonus, helps add interest to the shot.

Looking at your settings, I'm guessing you shot handheld. Nothing wrong with that, but for a subject like this a tripod will help tremendously. That way you can drop the ISO to its lowest setting, close down the aperture a bit for maximum depth of field, and then open the shutter up to, say, 5 seconds to start with. Then go from there!

Hope this helps, look forward to seeing more from you in the future. Keep shooting!

Feel free to PM me with any questions,

Susan

Lunar Eclipse, Western Australia, 3.30 or so New Years day morning. Not too bad at all, bit of contrast might have given it a bit more punch.
