CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!
Took this photo during the recent sidewalk at Toa Payoh Central. 16 July 16:04 UT. 10-inch non-tracking Dobsonian at 313x magnification. Hand-held HTC One S.

@Mystiq - This is mountain is named after the Italian Appennine Mountains. So I wasn't surprised the first retweet is from an italian. You can download free software and phone apps to identify the names of the features on the Moon - e.g. Virtual Moon Atlas or Google Earth for desktop, LunarMap Lite for Android, ..etc.
