Hand held P&S moon shot through cloud cover

I tried to do a moon shot with my Kodak Z 990 zoomed out to 840mm. I played around with several settings and took a lot of shots. Cloud cover dampened a lot of the light, but it turned out OK. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Moon over NY.

wow..you got that hand-held?

Amazing. Mine would be a blurry blob if I tried that.

What I find mind blowing is that these were taken through a completely over cast sky. And that I got this detail through clouds. When I looked through the view finder, all I seen was a bright dot. I can't wait for a clear night.

I actually get the best moon shots with my hand held Panasonic FZ100. Here's a couple you might like.
