This image was runner-up in the Astronomy photographer of the year competition held by the National Maritime Museum. It made me smile...
It is called Hunting Moon by Jean-Baptiste Feldmann from France. The website calls it "a playful silhouette places an Earth-bound Moon-catcher in pursuit of the waxing crescent Moon in the early evening sky on 6 April 2011."
For some reason this reminded me of "The Little Prince" maybe the slope of the hill, or the silhouette of the child wearing what looks like a cutaway coat.
