Hi Gerry,

I saw the same sight last nite, and you're right it was spectacular, unfortunatly the clouds came in just as I was zeroing in on it! :C
We'll have to wait and see maybe someone got lucky here in the forum!

Hi Jim,

Very cool shot, there are a lot of bumps on he mare floor could be unresolved craterlets or perhaps domes. You'll have to post that one to the domilunari group!
I did Mons Piton last night, thought I'd add it to your shot since they kinda belong together!

thanks

VERY nice Ivan! Great to see an old friend back is'nt it? You down south Guys are gonna have an advantage over us northerners, I don't think its ever going to get much up over 40 degrees in the sky for us! Ah well maybe we can all do a field trip to S Fla for an imaging get together!!

Rima Hyginus x2

Both images are gorgeous Wes! Interesting comparison of image scale and varying seeing conditions! Just out of curiosity what software are you using to annotate, and frame your images, I like that look, Paolo does that too with a nice overall effect!

cheers

Very dramatic shot Wes! I love it!! I really like the small sinous rille too, can't find the name of it though... maybe the Plato rille wink
