Ok here's my attempts..

2 at newt prime focus and one with the 3x barlow in.

Seeing was pretty good, but it was a bit windy and to get access to the moon, I had to set the platform and scope up on the decking, which was very wobbly.. so every time I moved, or the dog or cat came wandering along, the whole image vibrated.

I wasn't intending to capture the X, had completely forgotten about it, but looked through the eyepiece and it caught me straight away!

Anyway here's my attempts.
