Just curious what equipment were you using, and settings, focal length, and where you were at. I posted the same picture last night and was comparing images. Slight differences but very similar. Curious if we used similar settings. I’m outside of St. Louis.

I'm in New Jersey. I use the Canon SX 50 for my moon shots. The picture was taken at 100 X. Shutter priority 1/160, aperture 4.5, spot metering, hand held with IS.

I had an earlier version of that camera and did similar moon shots. I half way expected as such. Thanks for the clarifying.

Wow. So very different setup than i used. But so similar. I used spot metering. ISO 200, at 1/250 f16. Nikon D750, 300-800 zoom with teleconverter and a tripod with a gimbal Mount. Hats off to you get such a great picture being handheld!! I was having issues with wind and clouds last night. My pic is on the page before yours I think.
