Hi Deniz,
I explained to another person earlier how I did it:-
"I used a small telescope of focal 600mm and aperture 80mm. I took it using afocal method, that is pointing my camera (handheld) directly over the eyepiece of the telescope. It is a similar technique as that used in 'digiscoping' for bird photography."
You can try to search the internet to learn more on "digiscoping" or "afocal imaging". Cheers!

Hi Debarshi,
Thanks for the wonderful comment. The Moon holds a certain mystical appeal to us, doesn't it? Cheers!

Hi Lisa,
Thanks. Sure you can try. It's all about learning from one another. I used a technique similar to "digiscoping" in bird photography. It is not difficult and yields rewarding results. Cheers!

Ah! Well that explains quite a lot. I was wondering how you got such fantastic resolution from the camera you were using.
Great shot!

Thanks Charlotte for your comments.
You can take photos like that. There is this technique called "digiscoping" in bird-photography. Do an internet search for it and you will learn more. It is not that difficult to do. The tick is to use eyepieces of long relief (about 20mm would be good).
Cheers!

Great work!
