moon with HTC smart phone

Hi all , we have a break in the weather tonight so I am out looking at the moon .
Telescope is my NG 127mm triplet on its Ioptron iEQ45 mount. Camera is the 5.2 megga pixel HTC smartphone held up to the following eyepieces .
Photo #1 , 8mm radian at 119x .
Photo #2 , 17mm Nagler t4.
Hope you enjoy , I can see how this astro photography thing is so addictive , awsome results to be had . . I am inpressed with pitch blackness of the surrounding sky , a tribuite to the scattered light supression in this scope , as I am in the middle of a city of 30,000 people .
Brian.
