First light! First photo!

In case you are all wondering what they fuzzy light is, it is Jupiter! Strung out on either side you can perhaps see three of Jupiter's moons. Now, I am no Damian Peach as you can tell, and this wee pic was taken with frozen hands and a shaking i-phone, but it it a start!
I set up my new telescope this evening - took longer than I had hoped, but not longer than I had expected as I am not as competent as I would like to be - however, we did get a good view of Jupiter with its bands and  moons - much better than this blob suggests! 
Onwards and upwards!!  ( or should  that be 'To infinity and beyond?)
