Which Crater is this?

[CSM]

Last Thursday - 2nd Oct - I at last had my new scope setup in the observatory and the first Moon views were truly amazing.  So I though I'd try a bit of imaging.  Not quite as good as I expected and a bit random - didn't try a mosaic at all, just a few interesting looking craters.  Result was I didn't really note what was what.

Am particularly intrigued by the image below.

Anyone any ideas as to which crater it is?

The crater on the centre left looks like Clavius.

Thanks guys.  Tried to work it out from the Virtual Moon atlas but there rendition is too smooth so the shadows make it all look rather different.

If you have the proper software on-board to run this, this site has some beautiful and detailed maps of our Moon:

If by chance you want to study the particularities of Clavius ​​and compare with some maps follows a photo made by me last night that is still unprecedented publication.
