Thanks for the kind comments everyone

Here is the second picture I took on the same night, not quite as zoomed in but still some good detail

Thanks again all

If anyone is interested, these moon pictures and the others I have posted were all taken with a Kodak AZ526 bridge camera, I bought for only £102 brand new on Ebay the week before I came to Calis
The camera is available on Amazon for £145 and has x52 Optical zoom plus x4 digital xoom which is how I managed to get the level of detail in the pictures
It has a digital screen on the reverse but also has a viewfinder to make it much easier to take this kind of high zoom picture

Fair to say I am very impressed with the camera, it takes really good pictures in automatic settings all the way from Macro mode to long range zoom and I haven't even started exploring all of the other camera modes yet but I know it gets great reviews everywhere so I am confident I will continue to thoroughly enjoy using this camera
