Hi,

Just for *fun* I did a 50% enlargement of a Clavius image I took on 11/05/04 I did no other processing to it other than the enlargement, I was surprised at how well the image held up to the enlargement, there appears to be a few crater chains located on the floor of Clavius.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

There is a lot of edge ringing in your image. Is that because of the way the individual images line up, or the camera itself, or the way you processed or sharpened the image?

Hi Wes,

This is one of my favorite shots of yours!! It does hold up quite nicely to enlargement, makes those finest of features stand out better!

Hi Wes,

We certainly don't need to spend millions of dollars on satellites to image the Moon when we have you! That image is otherworldly! 8O
