My favorite Moon shot taken in Carmel California with an iphone4 and a really strong set of military binoculars! 

            This shot took a bit of practice....! My brother actually came up with the idea of sticking his iPhone and later, his Canon, into the eye of a set of binoculars which can only be described as a hybrid binocular/telescope. They are too large to carry, and rest on a giant tripod with rollers. Suffice to say- the thing is massive!  However, the weight and size seem worth it once you see through them on a clear night and find your first nebula, galaxy, whale, or dolphin! Distant moons can be seen from other parts of our solar system as well if their orbit is in sync- Jupiter, Saturn, and mars (no moons with mars though!), and many other stellar phenomena can be seen, it's really amazing! I've looked for hours... 
Anyways, my brothers brilliant idea took some patience but we've been doing it ever since with video, iPhones, canons, whatever..., and it never gets old! 
This is my favorite iPhone moon shot, taken in spring of this year using camera+. I vignetted and added about 45-50% HDR within the camera+ app. I usually throw in a cocktail of editing tools, but this seemed so perfect as it was I didn't want to botch it up! :)
