A ridiculously challenging shot (although it doesn't look it, I'm sure).

Taken handheld through a hand-steadied, and might I add VERY sensitive high powered reflector telescope with a 10 inch disc and an appropriate eyepeice on a wooden deck with probably 12 people milling about (lots and lots of vibration and shake), using my Father's Canon A80.

Movement of the moon was almost visible in the eyepeice due to magnification, and the shot was 2 seconds.

This is full phase of an eclipse that happened during my last visit to Canada getting close to 2 years ago.

It's not fantastic, but it was one of my very first 'astro' photographs...
