Lunar Features

Imaged on the 16th of August.
42 subs stacked. ED127 and Canon 550D.
It's cloudy this evening so I thought I'd dig out my maps and books and put some names to some features, Mares, Craters and landing sites.
I mean, we all know that Man walked on the Moon, but how many of us can point out exactly where their foot prints are.

Love 'em all, but that first one would have to be one of the best lunar shots I've seen in a long time Jeannette. Stacked hey? Top stuff.

Great images Jeanette! Sticking feature names on photos is the best way for us to lunar geography. Thanks.
