    Unfortunately, after that, all the small bowls on the left did it, because my mind knew what to look for to see the differences in shading.

    Because it is not real. Don't be fooled by the fakers. The moon doesn't revolve from horizon to horizon in 30 seconds. Duh? Have you ever watched the moon in the sky?
