Waning Gibbous Moon🌗 - 56% Solar Illuminated

I have intensified the colors in image post-processing. The blue color is due to solar rays scattered to the moon by the earth's atmosphere that scatters more at the short wavelength portion of the solar spectrum. The other colors are probably close to the actual colors of regions on the moon.
