Our nearest neighbor, the Moon, is something we all look at almost every clear night. Close up, it can provide amazing views and hints about its formation over time.

If you push the contrast a bit when processing an RGB photo of the moon you can start to see the mineral deposit densities on various parts of the lunar surface.

Moon after the Great Conjunction
Taken immediately following the Great Conjunction, I was able to zoom in a bit more on the shadows. Quite often, a partial moon provides better imaging possibilities due to craters casting long shadows and there being less reflected light to deal with when viewing on-screen.

Depending on where the Moon is in the night sky, you can get interesting angles.
