It's weird seeing it lit up that way.
I get the other half up here. -

Posted here before ...

Same half - upside down...

An even more clear sky this evening...
[Edit] I reprocessed it a little
-
Very nice, this second processing provides a little more detail in the highlight areas.
There might still be a little room for improvement with the shutter speed; I'd try 1/400s at ISO 400. And be sure to check the effect of drastically increasing the saturation: I think they call it "mineral moon", and it gives an indication of the soil composition in different areas of the moon... -
Thanks Doctor, I will remember those exposure hints. Coincidentally I had only just learnt about mineral moon. I had tried it in FastStone but with no obvious effect. I will see if ON1 makes any difference...

June full Strawberry Moon

That's great!
1/40s, 840mm… have you used a tracker? -
Thanks. No tracker.
