Description

The southern tip of the lunar sickle (southern spire) in a very plastic way. I have photographed this region many times, but this is the first time I see it in this 3D. Schiller-Zucchius Basin - visible central depression and two concentric rings protruding above the surface. On the right edge there is a large Schickard crater with a convex Wargentin above it. At the edge of the vast Bailly crater - in the old nomenclature - "walled or ring plain". Details of its interior are perfectly visible.

Mosaic of two frames.
