Great shot !

Yeah a bit (sky saturation)

You could also add a bit of contrast and lightness to the moon

Thanks! Yeah, I maybe should have went harder on the contrast instead of the saturation.

The image compression isn't helping either

I guess it's just so that the image doesn't take up that much space on their instance (storage is expensive and inflexible in VPSs)

Yep, I noticed when I upload large images they never get many upvotes. I think pawb has slow bandwidth and people don't want to wait for a large image to download.

Ah gotcha, it's good to not overload the instance
