Moon taken with 8mp handheld mobile phone. Through 10-inch non-tracking dobsonian telescope at 139x magnification. During last Saturday's SAFRA stargazing event at 11:26pm local time. Thanks to KK for his 9mm premium eyepiece! Live view that night is even more clear and contrasty.
Only cropped, rotated and watermarked. No further image editing/enhancing.
