Nice and sharp John. It must be good to have the jet stream settling down.

Thanks guys and gals, seeing was occassionally quite good but did deteriorate over the 2 hours I spent.
Well David I use a red filter when seeing is above avg but not great as it cuts down the seeing movement, and I use green filter when seeing is good-vgood and Lum or no filter when seeing is excellent which hardly happens. The red filter still gives a good frame rate of 30fps at long fl if not to close to terminator.
Regards, John.

Great shot, John
They would make great examples of lunar geology to teach 1st years with, especially about crater morphology and formation processes.
