Petavius

20:18 30/9/2004 UTC

Weather finally cleared up, so I immediately went outside to try my RAW-modified Webcam into Moon. Moon was couple of days past full moon and some very interesting craters were nicely placed around terminator. Here is my first processed crater Petavius. The big rille in the crater floor is also nicely visible.
