Lunar Eclipse shot at Bronia Park, Epping, NSW

I'm a very beginner, and this is my first time to shoot Lunar Eclipse.
First full moon was taken by Nikon D300s, at 85mm before it started. Then I borrowed Cannon 550D and shot the next three pics at 250mm.

the most difficult thing I found is how to mannually make accurate focus for the moon, I have tried a lot and even the third one has come out of good focus.

Nice work there William. Try focussing on a bright star if in doubt. At least this will give you a good starting point.
