What a fantastic capture! Many regular folk don't realise that the moon has a little colour to it. Samples of orange soil where taken from the Taurus-Littrow region (1/5 across 2/3 down in your image) by Apollo Astronauts. Apparently it caught their eye amongst the rest of the colourless lunar surface. From a distance it probably looked a little like gold.
