About this image

This was my first attempt at obtaining a picture of the moon using afocal imaging with a mobile phone camera. It was really to see how well I could do by just hand holding the camera. I was pretty pleased with the result. I haven't adjusted this image in any way. Apart from rotating it, this is how the picture came out of the camera. North is up but due to using a star diagonal East is to the right and West is to the left (so flipped in the vertical line).
