Rheita E

There are a hundreds of multi crater features to explore. I was scanning the area with the live view when the bright wall of Rheita E stood out like a spolight on a stage. Processing has toned down he feature here but too late it had caught my attention enough to capture this image. 1000 frames were stacked in Registax and sharpened in Imagesplus. As mentioned previously the seeing was not brilliant and contrast has suffered.

I was also taken by the two overlapping craters of Steinheil & watt. The angle of illumination shows off well the 10,000 foot high walls of Steinheil & Watt. You can clearly see also the ejecta rays of material from out of view Tycho.
