Mare Insularum - May 14

[Gladiator]

Hi all,

This is my last image out of May 14 session - and the biggest one, too.
From this image on, a collection of wide images framing lunar seas will follow. This is something new to me I missed in the past.

Here's portrayed the Mare Insularum where islands can be nicely seen in the lower right corner.
Copernicus is showned here in all its own majesty thanks to the grazing illumination.

Make sure to look at the full size image.
More to follow.
Thank you for your attention.

That is stunning Paolo! Amazing resolution and detail. The contrast from the terminator to the lighter areas is quite something.

Fantastic work indeed! :thumbsup:

That is an amazing image Paulo. It's just a shame that there isn't anything there can can give a clue as to the scale of that crater. Well done anyway - amazing clarity.

Frank and Paul,

Thank you, too, for your comments!
Paul, you're completely right about the missing scale. Hope I can have time enough to modify my next captions.
For your clearance, 10 pixels there in the image are about spanning 3.3kms in the lunar ground.
