My First Telescope - Part 2

Sorry for being wording but I believe I reached the max. lines in my first thread. (See part 1 first.)

I’ve attached two images I’ve taken on just the third night out with my scope. I know they are fuzzy and over-exposed, but these were taken with just holding the camera up to the eyepiece and snapping the picture. (I think they’re okay coming from a guy who never owned a telescope before and didn’t know how many moons Jupiter has until just a week ago.)

Thanks Astromart and for the great advice from those who helped me get started.
