A single shot of the 6-day old Moon with the Lunar X and Lunar V formations just visible late in their apparition at this lunation, as the peaks and ridges that make up the apparent formations, and the area around them, were beginning to light up fully, so the effect was being lost. They X and V (the latter just above centre) were more obvious a few hours earlier. This is a single 1/100th second exposure with the Canon 6D MkII at ISO 100 on the A&M 106mm refractor at f/6, with the image size doubled and the frame cropped, and Topaz Sharpen AI applied. Taken March 20, 2021 from home in Alberta at 9:37 pm MDT.
