My rule of thumb for shooting the moon has always been to shoot at f-11 at 1/ISO to get good detail of the moon. But your shots are using a fraction of that exposure and still washing out the moon to a plain white disk. If your ISO is set to 100, you should see good moon detail at f-11, 1/100. But your image says f-11 at 1/4000. Weird. Your moon should be black. 
 
Just scratching my head. Thought you might like to watch.
