Andrew,

Very interesting image, almost like a 3-D picture. Thanks for posting. I'm a moon fan, please keep them coming.

Wow. What a great shot. It warms my heart to see you guys with the big light buckets pointing them at the moon instead of cussing the moon for wiping out DSO's. Thanks for sharing this!

It ain't purty, but it works

Tom,

That is brilliant. You ought to patent it. Seriously, before someone else does. Orion would probably sell it.

I gotta find me some of that black craft stuff...

That is gorgeous, Wes. What kind of scope are you shooting through?

Wesley:

The detail your get in your pictures is like being in orbit around the moon. Thanks for sharing them!

Wes,

That is cool. Do you have a GoTo on that scope? I get a kick out of guys who can use that on the sun and then find planets and stars before it gets dark.

I think I've been scammed

You should review PayPal's policies. You have 30 days to file a claim with them, so if the eyepiece doesn't show up Sept 30, you should file your claim Oct 1.

Lunar crater Daniell

Posted By Pam Heinze

Wes, You sure need a higher resolution atlas than VMA expert. Compare your crater on the right with the smaller one right next to it to the one along Rima Daniell in

The crater in the land mass is maddeningly on the edge of the frame. It might be the one in the upper left hand corner of

I couldn't find a picture with all your craters together. None of these craters are marked in any of these images or in VMA, where they are barely visible. Not labelled in any diagrams in Exploring the Moon by Cherrington. Wonder if they're labelled in any of the atlases I've been too cheap to buy. Or maybe they aren't labelled because people haven't taken pictures this good before.

Another Lunar Shot - No ID

Posted By Pam Heinze

Tyler,

It looks like you have a lovely picture of Klaproth and Casatus (the one with the little crater inside).

Thanks to Virtual Moon Atlas and the handly links to the Lunar Planetary Institute's Digital Photographic Atlas.
