What's this coming out of the moon?

Hi folks,

I help my digital camera up to the EP again last night and good a few half decent shots. One however looked a little odd (attached).

At the top left, it looks like a "wirey" piece is coming out from the side of the moon. I'm sure this is just a crater and it looks like this because of the shadows cast. I saw the exact same through the EP so it wasn't a camera artifact.

Anyway, this got me thinking, does anyone know of any good online maps of the moon? I would like to learn more about what I'm seeing exactly, the names of the various craters and features, etc.

Thanks,
Af.
