The Lunar mountains, eclipsed Sun and it's reflection

Sun and the Moon may look distorted when setting or rising with jagged edges and may appear distorted in a weird yet fascinating way and is always a wonderful opportunity to take photographs.
In this image of Partial Solar Eclipse which occurred on 25-10-2022, you can, not only see the shadow of the moon obscuring a part of the Sun but if you look closely at the lower edge of the moon's shadow over the solar surface it appears to be jagged and unusual. These are visible due to the Solar light passing through the mountains and peaks of lunar surface at the terminator giving it a jagged look.
The black dot that you see over the right lower half is just a visibility marker hanging over the distant power lines.
