Hi all,

Following on from the Sinus Iridum image here is an expanded view of the area covering the northwest terminator on 17th February 21:58-22.50UT.

As you might expect the exposure levels in the AVIs were quite different moving north, hopefully after some tweaking in Photoshop the transitions aren't too obvious!

I couldn't resist a few variations at different image scales and orientations -

Somehow I prefer this image south up but for those who like their images the 'right' way up (like me normally! ;o)
