Well it\'s pretty simple really. Just load the original file into photoshop or whichever editor you use. Use the crop tool and drag out the box to tightly fit around the moon part of the image. Perform the crop and then save the image as a Jpeg at high quality. That\'s it. Nothing to it really. If you never scale the image it will always be considered to be a \"100%\" sample and after cropping it will be called a \"100% crop\".
If you have a really long lens and/or a 20+ megapixel camera then there might be an instance where the poster would feel uncomfortable posting such a huge image. In such a case they (you?) can either post a scaled version in-line here with a link to the 100% crop (I\'ll provide a host for anyone needing it) or post some section or sections of the 100% image here directly.
