not voting right now, but I'm sorry--new moon means there is no moon. I think you might get hit on this one...

if the noise isn't intentional, try a lower iso setting or use a noise reduction software, either trees nor moon are sharp

New Moon means no moon though. ETA more specificaly shadowed moon. It's still there and you can see it but it's not bright like that.

Very nice use of the trees for the framing of this shot. It seems a bit grainy, and the moon is too blown out. I wonder what it would have looked like with a faster shutter speed to get more detail on the moon while still keeping the silhouettes. Still, I like the simple but effective composition.

A new moon is not visible, this is a full moon exactly 14.1 days apart

A slightly faster shutter would render more detail in the moon. I also feel that dark empty spaces dont do much for this pic. more is needed in this to keep the interest

There appears to be a great deal of noise in this, did you use a very high ISO?
Nice idea and composition though.

Isn't this a full moon, not a new moon? (I can see that
photographing the moon at new moon is rather pointless, though.)
As for the photograph: The moon is certainly too bright and thus
doesn't have any structure. The composition is ok, but not very
exciting.

i like this one it has a peering effect. Like someone is peeking out at you.

ummm...that's a full moon. you can't really photograph a new moon because it's the dark side of the moon.
