Hehe, that cartoon was spot on.

I was checking Virtual Moon Atlas but couldnt find exactly where it was that I saw the sharp multicrested mountain. It reminded me of a citadel.
There was also a triangular structure that gave a broad triangle shadow which looked massive also.

Do people use a moon filter often? Its very bright, but detail is at its fullest.
I would think the best view is without a filter. But sometimes its like staring at a cars headlights for too long.

Mountains on Moon - "1000fts high" - try thousands of metres - it's mind-boggling.

I attached a pic - hope it works - will make you smile, or cry?
