Just right click on the image and copy the URL. Then paste that between the image tags.

Or do what Rick said.

It's a pretty good image. The exposure looks good as the light parts are not washed out. A slight tweak of the brightness and contracts settings should make a big improvement and maybe an small amount of unsharp mask too.

I was there too and Doug was using a little hand held digital camera through the eyepiece.  I think it was through either David Price or Ken's ETX.

Not bad for a handheld camera through the eyepiece, it's very difficult to get the object straight.
