West side of moon

1st Nov. West side of the moon near Aristarchus crater (40km diam, bright crater in centre of pic). Just above it is Schroter's Valley (a sinuous rille). Also notice the Aristarchus plateau - a dark diamond shaped area around the rille that contains volcanic ash. The plateau is not smooth but has many small hills and ridges. Single exposure 1/125 sec x 200 iso image taken thru a 10" LX600 SCT scope with a Canon 1200d camera. Do you recognise the other craters in the pic? Thanks for viewing.
