This is the Moon at 35% phase photographed on 3 April 2025. I was able to pull out fine details of the surface of our satellite. I've also brought out the colours of the lunar seas. The red-pink hues indicate iron oxide and the blue hues represent titanium oxide. Notice the various optical phenomena observed on the photo: rainbow around the Moon due to dispersion, diffraction rays due to the construction of Newtonian telescope.
I used a Canon 6D amateur camera, a 2x Barlow lens, a GSO 150/750 reflector telescope, and an Arsenal EQ5 mount.
You can download the full-resolution image for your wallpaper from my Flickr.
