Oops, it took me a while to respond to this. Making photos of a lunar eclipse is deceptively hard! Don't blame your shaking hands here; even someone with exceptionally steady hands is going to find it's still not enough. Three tips:
1. Use a tripod-- and a sturdy one, at that. Last time I photographed an eclipse I braced my camera against a solid object-- which has worked fine for waterfall pictures-- but that wasn't enough to make eclipse pictures I was happy with.
2. Set your exposure release on a timer or use a remote trigger so your hand pressing the action button doesn't jolt the camera as it's reading the sensor.
3. Finally, if you've got a long or heavy lens on the camera, make sure it's all counterbalanced properly, otherwise the whole rig could still be oscillating several seconds after your last touch!
