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.

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