A little magic

Hi I went out at about 8.15 and the moon was well placed,I set up my Skywatcher 80mmED telescope on the AZ5 mount and the view was very clear but smallish so set up my Skywatcher 127 on a goto mount.

The view was stunning and  I-tried various combinations of eyepieces and a Barlow .

I noticed a crater on the terminator Had a broad black band running vertical and a very conical shaped crater giving a broad dark band at approximately 3'o clock .

 

I increased power and had some really great views of surface features. the crater with the dark bands  looks like it was Albategnius but I'm no expert on craters
