Moon shot through 10 x 50 binoculars :^)

I've always wondered, now here it is, 10x50 Bushnell binos bungee-
corded to a camera tripod, Kodak Easyshare z730 on a second tripod

Converted to B&W and reduced to 35% of original size using Roxio. Sky
conditions, 1/crappy and getting worse. I started off the session with
a promising IR and water vapor satellite loop and decided to go
looking for Neptune with my 8" under the blazing Moon and well-lit
Central FL
skies, and then the sky conditions devolved enough until the thought
arose "O.K. now that I've put the telescope away AGAIN, now what am I
gonna do?"

Well there ya go! (Hmmm, now I wonder if a contact lens can be used as
an objective?)
