Lunar Eclipse with point and shoot hand held against 10" Dob eyepiece

I'm very envious of some of the shots you guys have posted of the lunar eclipse. Here is what I managed to achieve with a Canon Powershot A650IS hand held against a 10" f/5 Dob with a 32mm eyepiece. Typically 1 second exposures, so proud of what I managed. These are the best photos. Plenty of discards.

I also tried shooting with Steadypix and DSLR but magnification was too high. I've got a camera barlow and ordered T-adapter and extension tube. Perhaps 2014...
