Description

I like to compare the same lunar region under different solar lighting. 

By positioning these two images side by side, it is easier to appreciate the effect produced on the reliefs.
This permanent variation of shadow and light gives all its interest to lunar imagery, added to the variety of landscapes.

For centuries and still today, our satellite retains in the collective imagination a certain attraction.
