Changing Face of the Moon, 2007
Weather meant this set of images had to be collected over a period spanning several months in 2007.
Images were taken through a 120mm F8.3 refractor by afocal projection method. Camera used was a 4 megapixel compact camera. This was my first real attempt at astrophotography through a telescope - I was very pleased with the results that could be obtained using a relatively basic setup.
I was even more delighted when the collage was published in the Hotshots section of Sky At Night Magazine :-)
