This is my first afocal image of the full moon.
Taken with an Polaroid PDC3150. Handheld.

Next photo is with noise reduction and smaller as adviced by iceman.

Had to make it grayscale with photoshop because they were sepia.

I'd try reducing it to 1024 or 800px wide, and running some noise reduction over it. It will clean up much nicer.

A great shot for a first try.!

Thanks iceman and ving.
Second image is denoised and made 1024 *768.
Looks a lot better (thanks to iceman).
Getting a ccd camera in next week , see what i can do with that one.
Btw the pic was taken with my 10" dob and a 24mm lense.
