Hi Don,
Going by those two shots the total eclipse of the Moon should be no problem. I'm also intending to have a go with a 400mm lens on a fixed tripod but with a 1.4x convertor. I have taken a full Moon pic with that arrangement which has come out fine. The total eclipse itself may be problematic as it is darker and will require a longer exposure. It is possible that it may need a tracking mount, we will just have to wait and see. All good fun.
Dave
