A Waning Gibbous Moon

Waning Gibbous 74% of Full (1) (1)

I took this photograph at 8 AM on July 31, 2010. The full moon had been on July 26. The July full moon is the Full Buck Moon because "Bucks begin to grow new antlers at this time. This full Moon was also known as the Thunder Moon, because thunderstorms are so frequent during this month." (Source: http://www.almanac.com/content/full-moon-names) I really like how this photograph turned out. The details of the surface are pretty clear.
