First time.

I have a cheap $5 web cam that i attached to my telescope to take a pic of the moon and it worked.
The photo is very basic, just pointed and took the snaps, it looks out of focus as the camera did not allow me to adjust the focus plus the moon was shimmering from the day time heat, anyway it was my very first astro photo so i am as happy as can be.

Dont ask me to post the pic as compared to yours mine is 1/10, but really i just wanted to do a test run as i intend to get a philips toucam, wanted to get it earlier but medical costs etc, you know how it is, but i am now excited at the possibilities ahead, seeing the amazing photos that many here take really is an inspiration.
