Partial Mosaic

Worked on a mosaic tonight, but I ran out of time.  The moon sunk into a tree, so that ended the photography session for this evening.   I only got 2 complete rows before I had to stop.  I started with the north and worked down.  I found an interesting feature while looking over the mosaic, so I brightened that tile and am posting it as well as the mosaic.  It is the region near WC Bond on the northern limb.  Seems there is a valley or rima or something like that.  My maps dont name it, so I'll have to look it up online.

Here is the partial mosaic, which I think the quality is quite good:

Here is the section I was talking about.  Fascinating terrain.....

I labelled W.C. Bond and if you look to the right of the crater, there appears to be a valley of some sort.  Its not real long, I dont know if its a valley or if its a crater wall.  Looks like some kinda valley to me.  Maybe its a crater, from an object that struck at a very shallow angle.

Seeing wasnt too good when these were taken.  The moon this time of year starts out rather low in the sky, and I didnt have time to do a whole lot before it sunk too low to work with.  I also spent a bunch of time trying to get the polar alignment perfect, so I could track better.  Transparency wasnt good, and I was unable to see Polaris well enough to align, so it was cut and try, trying to keep the image from moving up or down as I made adjustments to the mount.

Considering the conditions, I feel that what I did get was of pretty good quality.
