If you like the moon shots try first quarter and shoot the terminator. Which is the sunrise or sunset line.
You see the most contrast there..
Thank you Sidwalkastronomy for your valuable advice.
I like the way it’s artistic and not just another shot if the moon. Each kind of picture has its own merit.

I hardly noticed the stars", but thought the moon looked great. Some people will find something wrong every time
How do you NOT notice the stars sprinkled all over and they aren't even round pin point.
I'm an amateur astronomer and look at a lot of astrophotography.
My comment of photoshopping a second head a a pretty model is a perfect example of something that's just not ever possible.
OP asked for comments and I gave them. I didn't say jack about the moon part
I did notice. I am an amateur astronomer too but also an artist. This photo is artistic.

Artistic?
Added stars aren't even in focus and not possible in nature.
Do you have a scope? Belong to a club? Are your star parties around the full moon? Big star parties like Stellafane are around new moon

So since you are obviously so superior, let’s see your photos. We will expect nothing less than art and science at its perfection.
And actually yes. I have two telescopes, a 10 inch Meade SC and a similar 8 inch (for portability). I belong to the RASC (Royal Astronomical Society is of Canada) as well as the Bays Mountain Astronomy Club. And I have been to Stellafane.
