taken bak on 9th November2009 10.20pm

using my trusty 127mm Mak @f/11.8 and Phillips SPC900 webcam

took 4 x 40 sec avi's @10fps best 300/400 were then stacked in Registax and stiched iMerge

got much better detail especially with Montes Apenninus Region

than last time i tried same area

think more shadows due to terminator being a bit closer this time

theres loads of interesting features, mountains, valleys, craters, craterlets, riles etc even a marsh Palus Putredinis.

really like shadow from peak of main mountain which after checking VMA seems to be Mons Bradley

also found mountanous area with rectangular shape south of crater Archimedes stands out well

all pics full capture size

except last Mosaic Pic which link to slightly reduced size is above

any comments appreciated

I love the way the sunlight hits those mountain peaks.

Great set of lunars James.
