Hi,

Well here's another Moon image smile

Lunar mountain range Montes Recti, Latin for "straight range"

This is another image from the batch I took back on 05/28/04

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

Wes,

Another excellent image of the lunar surface. Where exactly is this range over the Moon. I am trying to locate it on my atlas. Looking forward to your future images.

Cool pic Wes!

I've always thought since I was a kid that this particular moutain range was very bizarre looking!
I'm going to try getting up in the wee hours of the morning to get the moon when its at a more respectable altitude during the last 1/4. This low altitude summer moon stuff is pretty marginal at times!

cheers
