Moon
More Moon! 
Two images, one at 2048px, but degraded somewhat due to file size considerations and another at 1024.

Here's another at 1,024px, taken with the Nikon D40 rather than the Canon. Not sure which I prefer...

Nikon shot nice too, but noise beyond the terminator a bit distracting I think?
