You did a great job on the Afocal method, come to think of it my first shot with the 10"dob was though a eyepiece on the full moon.
Though now i have to inform you as a fellow IIS'er you have been diagnosed with Astrophotitis... it s a terminal disease... Im a sort term sufferer, but there are many here on their last legs.

Good luck!
