Congratulations on imaging this crater with an 8" aperture, a most excellent achievement indeed.

PS; Just found the key to my chart, yep, the Huygens Crater. Again, what a top effort this is.

Trevor, thank you for this post. I posted that image to the Marsobservers list, and right away some people said "no way, impossible, not Huygens". I like you, too the time to do measurements and came up with what you did. If you don't mind, I will post what you said to that list, but will leave your name out. Thanks to the others for the kind comments.
