Moon Surprise: Lunar Craters Are Bigger on Near Side

The Moon on April 2nd 2020
Hello Photography lovers, Here is a shot of the moon with a Nikon 800mm + 1.25x teleconverter, which equals to 1000mm. I rent this telephoto lens for 1 day just for the above purpose, and as you can imagine, i was very sad when it was time to give it back...

Youre gonna laugh your socks off
So I took your advise, missed the moonrise but decided on the moonset. Dragged all camera equipment upstairs and than thru a narrow escape /maintenace ladder to the door that leads to the roof. The moon was still to high to shoot good pictures and I had a...
