Deep TLE + Uranus with 3 moons

Here's a deep, wide-field image of the lunar eclipse on 2014 October 8, taken with a 15-cm f/5.6 scope + Canon 5D3 DSLR. Despite Uranus being over 2 degrees from the eclipsed moon as viewed from Canberra (it appears on the far right edge), I've managed to capture both in this 30s integration at ISO 3200. Since the moon was overexposed, I have replaced it with another more suitably exposed image taken around the same time. To my surprise, I also captured 3 of Uranus' moons: Titania (13.9), Umbriel (15.0) & Oberon (14.1) as seen from left to right.
