Cresent Moon

[DemonicOmelette]

Here's a couple very different pictures I took of the Moon last night...

In the first one, with the earth-shine, how do I avoid getting the reflections seen to the right? And is there any way to get the moonshine without the glare on the "bright side"?

The second one is just kind of lovely, I think. But then I saw some of the photos some of you have taken, and realise I have a lot, a LOT to learn.
