Hi Andy. A nice gallery of your lunar captures with the polarizing filter. The second shows that tree well, but the third is the best of the lunar photos despite the clouds. Thanks for sharing these with us on here Andy, and the best of regards.

Those are cool Andy, the Moon and clouds can make for some neat scenes. Good call on the polarizing filter too :D

All the best,
