Moon 3529

Glanced up at the moon the other morning. It was high in the south-western sky, giving me a steep-angle view, and this is what I saw
through triple-paned windows. Any of you astronomer/physicist types please correct me, but I think what is
happening is that one is the real moon (the brightest, of course), and the other six are reflections off each surface of the three panes of glass.
Yes, I know you can only readily see five reflections, but that's because of the limited latitude of the "film" (sensor, actually)
as compared to the human eye. I could definitely see 7 images in all on that morning.
