this is the original (obviously cropped) 400mm 1/1000th F8 at ISO500
and the second shot is the same mood with the exposure adjusted.
I should have shot at about 1/1250 or 1/1600th of a second to get more darks to show the detail, but hindsight right!!!
I sacrificed ISO for handholdability, and for fast shutter speed because i knew i was shooting so far into the distance.
My favorite moons to shoot are partial because you can see the shadows of the craters making them look more detailed.
I probably could have also gone to a 400ISO
