Weeks before the eclipse I heard that it is possible to capture Earth shine and stars along with the Corona during totality. I made it one of my goals during the eclipse to capture such an image.

This image was shot using Canon R5, Sigma 150-600mm f/5.6-6.3 Contemporary lens at 600mm f/6.3 , ISO 400, 1/250, 1/125, 1/60, 1/30, 1/15, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 1 sec. shutter times. Because this was shot during totality, no filter was used. Images were preprocessed to TIFF format using Adobe Camera RAW with no adjustments except for a slight Noise reduction. I did my own custom adjustments in Photomatix Pro 6.2 to get the HDR to look as good as possible, de-saturating the bright Corona area closest to the sun. I enhanced the shadow areas to pull out the dimmer Corona at the far parameters. When I brightened the shadows, it tended to mess with the colors making it more purple than I liked. I used a non-destructive Dodge & Burn to brighten the stars a bit.
