Quietly and deeply amusing on so many levels, not the least of which is that President Trump would probably find it funny himself.

I guess that means you print (big) a lot or crop (drastically) a lot? But a workhorse is rarely a thoroughbread? - might be a quarterhorse though! 
When my beautiful Epson printer was working I did print big a lot, but not so much lately until I can save up enough for another one. But I rarely crop drastically, although it is nice to have the option. My "work horse" is a Clydsdale, with the red ring around the lens (in Canon-speak that means a lot). I would consider that a thoroughbred!

Always remember when you are shooting the moon you are actually shooting the sun. You are going to have to tell your camera what to expose for and ignore its suggestions. The camera will want to expose for dark. You must be in manual and expose off of the moon, then compose.

Unfortunately, Luminar isn't available for Windows. Photoshop changes the RAW files to a Photoshop file and my experience has been that the Photoshop conversion image quality hasn't been as good as if you used the Native Nikon or Cannon software. Lightroom is suppose to be a Non-destructive software, but again the quality of the images don't seem to be as good as the Native software.
You can save your photo in Photoshop to a JPEG, which is the normal platform for photos. The Photoshop platform is strictly so that you can go back and manipulate the changes you have made and the layers you have added. Once you save it as JPEG, it flattens all of that and you don't have the chance to change existing manipulations.

The kit lens is an adequate lens. I use mine when I am in weather or doing street photography where I have to carry it for a long time. It is light and I don't worry about it getting messed up like my more expensive lenses since to replace it is very cheap (you can go to a camera store and get one second hand for next to nothing). On the other hand, investing in a really good quality (translation-expensive) "work horse" lens like my 24-105 zoom lens for the majority of my work is important. The kit lens is just a back-up, but I wouldn't get rid of it.
