Well spotted and photographed!!!
I saw one of these the other chasing a sparrow!! They disappeared into a garden but did not reappear!! It's a fair bet the raptor had lunch!!

And The Pleiades at the very top rhs corner, probably Jupiter down a little bit on the rhs edge, and there's Sirius to the left of Orion!
Plus that lovely blue gradation to the sky.
Great!

I'd get a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer Mini, that's 50 quid more than a O-GPS2. If you want to spend 100 quid more, then get a Star Adventurer 2i Pro Pack (this is the one I have). It is far more capable and it can also be used to create time lapse images.
Ioptron also make one which is from about 380 to 600 plus quid.
I tried the O-GPS1 and it was good... but nowhere near the same league as a Star Adventurer. I beleive the Ioptron ones are even better!

I like them both....
The moon can actually be a difficult subject to shoot. It's really easy to get the exposure buggered up!
Sometimes I do more contrast... others I do not... depends on what takes my fancy!!
