Default Moon Craters
The moon always looks like a ball of wet concrete even in colour.

Thank you for the comments.

The picture is the clearest of about 40 I took that evening. Its really boring. You look through the viewfinder (eyes watering !!) and watch for the clearest picture. BTW one needs to get comfortable on a nice chair sit in the freezing cold and snap away
