Folding mount moon

OK guys I'm getting a little desperate here...still no mount.

So, the Moon taken at 4:00am sunday morning.

Hand-held ED80 (resting on a folding chair), 2x barlow, stock 40D.
25x 1/1600 sec exp, ISO1600, ICNR off.
Rough hand aligned in PS (registax refused otherwise), half scaled & cropped.

Would love to have done a galaxy instead, but drift aligning a folding chair proved difficult.
