About this image

The weather has been too poor (and I've been too busy) to head out and get fresh images this month, so instead I've reprocessed this image from some archive frames from February. I've focused on processing full-disk frames down to focus in on the Lunar Mountains (Alpes and Apenninus) and applied some gentle processing in Registax to bring out the smaller craters.
