Fantastic!  I also shot that area a few hours before you did, judging from
the shadows, and I was thrilled just to get a hint of the network of riles
within the crater.  Yours looks like a Lunar Orbiter photo compared to mine.
Your seeing is amazing.  Here in Texas, the air over the city is one giant
heat wave undulating like translucent Jello!  I am envious of your sky.
