I can detect the presence of the moon there. I find it helps to use a lens with a focal length of a bit over a metre, and it also helps that the aperture is big too, as that gets the detail pinned down. Have you experimented with very short exposures?
And another thing, a full moon is a hard target because there are no shadows on it, so it often ends up looking washed out.
