That ought to be a challenge for anyone with an iphone/smart phone. How far in astrophotography can you take it. With a free app that turns the phone into a SLR, you can take timed exposures.

So I took a pic of it with my iPhone and it was! I will post the photo on my SLAS gallery tonight. Sent from my iPhone
