John,

I really like this image, there is a lot in there when you really look and it's really interesting to see what you can see through your reflector. I'm guilty of re-orientating it, so I could identify the features, using a lunar atlas and books. I also tried it with some simple editing colour filters, but that's the fun of lunar observing and working on different images. Looking forward to your next observation,

Regards,

Tor
