An excellent image of Lambert and Lambert R. The detail over the floor and walls of Lambert is very interesting. Than you for sharing this one with us all.

Wes, thank you for sharing this terrific picture..and the ghost Lambert R is the best ghost crater type I have ever seen. In geology, we refer to geologic time zones to type formations..Lambert R is the type zone for ghost craters!
Congratulations,
Pete

Excellent shot, Wes. I tried my 6" f/5 last night on Saturn, and it was a mess. Cassini's division was hard - go figure.

Wow, the steep walls of Lambert reminded me of Manilus, but the really delicate ray ejecta blanket surrounding it is what caught my eye! Quite spectacular!

AWESOME
