Hand-held Pentax Optio S40, eyepiece projection shot through Orion SkyQuest 10" Newtonian reflector, Dobsonian mount, cropped to remove (most) vignetting. Mare Imbrium on the upper left, Mare Vaporum on the lower left, and Mare Serenitatis on the right, featuring the Valentine Dome (barely resolved). Fair-to-good seeing conditions at Cuesta College North County Campus, Paso Robles, CA. Click on the photo link for geographic (lunagraphic?) annotations.
