Well, in hindsight I'd say that a photo every 5 minutes will probably faithfully capture the progression nicely.
That's what I tried to do. I almost got half way doing it before the heavens opened up with rain.
If you photographed it you'll probably notice that there are few discernible features at the margins of the shadow. I assume there are no discernible features because a direct light at almost 0 degrees casts no shadow(?)
I got mare as the moon dulled, and there was a prominent crater near one of the poles which stood out. Apart from those features, it wasn't what I thought it would be.
I thought it would provide images of craters offset by their shadows. But that didn't seem to happen. Perhaps it is a question of time when it comes to getting the right image. I must admit I haven't seen any hugely cratered images. Just lots of images involving the mare.
