Mike has made an excellent point. Exposure meters are always fooled by a small white object on a dark background. Therefore you are best shooting this in manual mode. Most photographers who do moon shots use a modified 'f11 rule', as follows. As you know the moon is usually in brilliant sunlight, never with cloud between the sun and the moon -- think about it. So, you know it will be about correct with the sunny f16 rule. As it turns out, sunny f16 yields a moon a little too dark, so f11 works better. For example, at f11 shoot with a shutter speed equal the iso of the film/digital speed. So for ASA 200, use a shutter speed close to 1/200s. Now at that exposure, your branch may not show up, and so fill flash or an extraneous light source may be needed for the foreground. Cheers!

Well, in my opinion the moon is well overexposed by at least two stops. Check the work of other Usefilm photographers who were more successful with photographing this subject. Congratulations on taking a chance. Practice makes perfect. Good Luck!
