It's a little darker, which makes the craters stand out for greater visibility.

And being a little darker means that the outside edge of the moon where the seas are, are more visible. That part of the moon isn't overexposed the way it is in the first photo.

Are you playing with the controls? You can do quite a lot if you do.
