Comment Nothing against having more than one FP on a topic, but for those interested, our other moon FPs include
an animation showing libration, a full moon
shot by the same photographer, and a (somewhat related) eclipse
sequence by Fir. Personally, I'll go with a weak oppose, but only because the full moon shot is so good.

True, but only for the bit of moon that's lit and even the full moon will show crater details at the edges (as our FP does). Also, as per Kaldari, the subject is cut off. While you and I know that the deep shade on the left really wouldn't have any details anyway, the position of the subject seems to follow the cartoon idea that the crescent moon is really a crescent (and not an apparent crescent due to the angle of illumination).

Oppose I hate to oppose such a nice photo, but it doesn't really add anything to the article. There are shots of craters on the page already, and I agree the full moon shot is good enough. --
