Nice work Stuart, looks really good!

A dark centre is usually the result of a processing artifact (oversharpening), but yours has a bright "pole" area at the top which indicates that feature itself is real.

The darker centre will be part real, but the sharpening process would've enlarged it to bigger and more contrasty than it normally would be.

But you can confidently say you've captured albedo markings, for sure.
