Sadly I don't have a fancy camera like
my brother (and I have no idea what F stops are), so these were taken with
my point and shoot digital camera sitting on a tripod whilst keeping the
shutter open for 15 seconds.

4 - Cool ! (BTW: for some reason, this post did not get picked up by my feedreader until this morning so I missed the event - then again, we have "fowl" weather.)

7 - Yes, assuming there was enough light to support using it, decrease the shutter speed to compensate............ you're probably bored by now...... You have chosen THE most difficult thing to photograph, the moon has fascinated mankind since the beginning of time (yes, before 1967!). This weekend, go to a photostore, buy a good digital camera & a spotting scope & go do some digiscoping { Link } at the moon, or som eother far flung object, I bet you get hooked

f stop = the focal length of a lens divided by the aperture diameter.
f number on Wikipedia >> { Link }
The lower the number, the faster the lens, which means it can be used in lower lighting conditions.
