What a beautiful photo! You have a good eye.

I really like the way you caught the craters along the terminator, including the one at the bottom where you see sunlight on one rim and the rest is visible only because of Earthshine.

The Moon is such a great subject that you can also get some nice shots with just a camera and a telephoto lens. Here are a couple of mine.

Thank you! You as well!

The shadows are very much my favorite part of this kind of shot. It provides so much visual texture to the surface, showing not only how rough it is but how smooth it is. the 'scar' to the bottom right (aka Alpine Valley https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vallis_Alpes) is always one of my favorites.

Thanks again!
