Title: Moon shot ...

Took this with my Samsung Galaxy J5 phone through one of the scopes at the Outreach on Monday. Must try harder..... Very hazy sky, hence the blur round the moon.

Wow, there is some excellent detail in that Doug, and when you consider it was just done with a Phone its amazing, and the focus is great,

I think you have tried harder.

It is however rather too bright, so I have reduced the brightness a bit in Photoshop and cropped the image as it was rather large.  What do you think?

I hope you are putting this in the next OAS members images presentation.

Definitely, in any case it is a member's image.
