Theophilus

Here is my latest on moon. In the middle of the image is two overlapping craters Theophilus on the left and Cyrillus on the right. The sea above the twins is Mare Nectaris. Seeing during the session was really bad. Temperature was 20 degrees below and warm city underneath made the image wobble like ripples in the water. But one out of 50 images the atmosphere stabilized and gave an acceptable result.
