If you zoom in it looks like there's a guy next to a crater. Could just be a smudge.

true color

You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means.

If you exaggerated the color as you were compositing the RGB captures, how is that true-color? If you raise the contrast or value of colors, you're manually adjusting it .. not taking a true color shot?

I understand that "our eyes aren't sensitive enough (to see what minute amounts of color are in the moon)", but this isn't "true color."
