Exposure starting point
For the sunlit Moon, the Looney 11 starting point is f/11 with shutter time 1/ISO. At f/11 and ISO 100, start near 1/100 second, then check highlights and adjust. Crescent and eclipse exposures need more light.
For a Moonrise foreground, use rise/set times and the bearing above to choose an unobstructed viewpoint.
