Imaged on the 16th of August.
42 subs stacked. ED127 and Canon 550D.
It's cloudy this evening so I thought I'd dig out my maps and books and put some names to some features, Mares, Craters and landing sites. :)
I mean, we all know that Man walked on the Moon, but how many of us can point out exactly where their foot prints are. ;) :)

Great info, thanks

Love 'em all, but that first one would have to be one of the best lunar shots I've seen in a long time Jeannette. Stacked hey? Top stuff.

Great images Jeanette! Sticking feature names on photos is the best way for us to lunar geography. Thanks.
