Instantaneous Moon and Jupiter Pictures

I took these pictures on the 25th of September (Without exposures) with my 305mm Skywatcher Collasible Dobsonian. I used a 4 megapixel Olympus Camedia D-545 zoom with the 'auto' setting on.The images show the Moon in a 25mm and 10mm eyepieces. I also have one picture of Jupiter in the 10mm eyepiece. The seeing was roughly 8/10 and the time was 6:30PM. The shots of the Moon around the terminator show quite a lot of detail. Jupiter show less detail, however you can still make out the cloud bands. Any advice is welcome and I would also want to know about any free photo processing software.
