Excellent Detail and you didn't overprocess it like so many others that post here. A full moon shot will disappoint you because there's no crater shadows, so a full moon is less spectacular.

Think of the phases of the moon like normal daylight. A full moon is like noon time sun high contrast less detail. Quarter moon = golden hour more detail less contrast able to see craters shadows. Yours is a keeper
Thank you! I will try a quarter phase when it wanes, maybe.

Excellent. Great detail. Some times being impatient pays off. Can see why you love that lens.
Thanks! I think there is a learning curve still, especially hand holding. But, fun to learn!

Thanks! I had not thought of that, but makes sense.

A half moon makes for a more compelling photo of the craters.
Good job!

The full moon definitely doesn't have the detail of the waxing half, but still ok. Looking forward to taking more as it wanes.
