Proclus area - Feb. 14
Hi all, the last image out from Feb. 14 lunar session is for the magnificent Proclus area - one among the brightest of the Moon - grabbed under a very high sun angle.
The crater itself was log stretched to avoid an excessive ground darkening all way around it.
I’m now sure the Moon is also interesting when observed far away from the terminator.
A new session is yet to come.
Thank you for your attention.
