Thanks Peter :)
And here's a few simulated views of the Mt Piton area using the photo above, the Lunar Terminator Visualisation Tool (LTVT) and Lunar Orbiter Digital Elevation data. The program can render shadows but I disabled that so the only shadows you see are from the original image.

And a few other "alternate" space based views of this morning's Last Quarter Moon using LTVT and the full disc image in the first post.

Very nice images and that tool looks amazing showing the Moon in a different light, love the lander views.

Tom, lander views look great, the last one doesn't really look right but the other are brilliant.

When i originally looked at it, it looked twisted inside out, but after looking again it look fine. Could be some optical illusion.
