It's completely legal

It's not moon shine, it's earth shine. Or according to Wikipedia, "PlanetShine"



When I got home from playing pool tonight the moon sliver looked just too good to pass up. I squished the images enough that the camera data didn't come through into smugmug, but it was my eos 5D at f/5.6 at 400mm (the 70-200 with the doubler for 400mm)

If you click the image it will take you to the gallery which has both exposures worth uploading. I only touched up the gamma a little bit to boost the detail in the dark part.

Leonardo_da_Vinci is given credit for figuring out earthshine...
