I used to think of the Moon as a boring object that creates light pollution and gets in the way of photographing nebulae and galaxies. But yesterday, after capturing Mars, I decided to point my telescope at the lunar terminator. It turns out there's a lot of interesting detail there. Unfortunately, I don't know lunar geography, and I have no idea what these craters are called. I can work on sharpness and capture more lunar landscapes.
P.S. The crater with the central peak is Piccolomini.
