Lunar X
To the upper left of the image is the letter X. It is an optical effect created by the partially lit rims and shadows of three craters. It only appears for a few hours before first quarter (sometimes called, incorrectly, half moon) as the terminator moves across it.
Photo taken by holding a phone to the eyepiece of my telescope.
