Full Colour Moon

[matt_baker]

Not sure if this completely counts but I wanted to share this 99.9% full moon from the other night that I captured.

The brown colours represent the Iron oxide on the surface and the blue is the titanium.

The colours are real however because they are too dim to see from the naked eye, the saturation has to be boosted to reveal our moon's true colours.
