So B&W was used as a way of increasing contrast to try and bring out detail. Now that the moon is starting to wane, over the period 9th to 14th September ( last quarter ) this is the time to catch more detail.
Note to Admin. If this works problem SOLVED

Don,
Thanks for your efforts and advice, its amazing what you can do with a little curve adjustment, I will have another go tonight and if I need to will mess around with curves. I have tried USM which does seem to help bring out the shadow a bit but the downside for me is I get a thin halo round the moon.
Cheers
