The old favourite, the Montes Appenines. Always looks good with a low angle of illumination. The map is from Virtual Moon Atlas.

Very pretty
The lighting is completely reversed in the two images; quite interesting.

Swapped telescopes for armchair.

Thanks Noel and Carole.

The Virtual Moon Atlas overlay image must have been taken when the Moon was waning not waxing I suppose.

Very nice close-up; particularly with the labeling helping identify features.  8)
