Lunar eclipse time-lapse 2015

This so called Blood supermoon eclipse started at 01:11 and finished at 06:22 wit a midpoint at 03:47.
This time-lapse Giff consists of 227 images @ISO100. The exposure was controlled from indoors using Backyard EOS and ranged from 1/500 second to 8 seconds.
The video was put together in Photoshop and condenses 2.5 hours into about 18 seconds. That's 500 x actual speed. The moon is quite difficult to track as it moves slower than sidereal rate and seems to move north all the time. I had to put the 227 images into Photoshop layers and manually align them which too some time.
