I reprocessed my recent moonshot to boost blue and yellow hues. To the naked eye, the moon is fifty shades of grey, but there is colour due to different minerals on the surface scattering sunlight differently. Processing involves correcting white balance and stepwise ramping up saturation.

I leaned into a mineral Moon tonight.
Iron-rich maria in blues, highlands in warmer tones. Enhanced contrast to bring out details.

A painting of a waxing crescent moon with flowers blooming from the bowl. Flowers include pink Peonies, yellow Dandelions, yellow Buttercups, white Angelica, and white Dogwood blossoms. There are colors of blue, deep black, and yellow in the background with splashes of glittering stars. The crescent moon is painted with mineral moon hues — mostly with blues and reds.
Finished. Two down, 6 to go.

Mineral Moon - deliberately over-saturated to emphasise the minerals on the moon. Brown/orange/red = Iron oxides; Blue = Titanium oxides

A picture of the full moon from May, 7 2020. Taken during the height of COVID pandemic lockdowns, the image is highly processed to exaggerate the slightest color and contrast differences of the surface of the Moon creating what is often termed a "Mineral Moon" image.

A big ole waxing gibbous moon, captured in rgb, with saturation boosted to show off some colour 😍

Moon shot, waxing gibbous, late October
I did a lot of post-processing on some recent #mineralMoon shots to bring out the almost hidden hues of sunlight scattered by different minerals on the surface of the moon. I've now processed that colour as a monochrome shot #FiftyShadesGrey
