Description

Here we have a trio of craters in the South-Central region of the lunar globe on the Eastern edge of Mare Nubium.

I particularly like the smooth arc of small craters leading from the Southwest portion of Ptolemaeus toward the Davy crater basin. I am imagining a barrage of incoming meteors striking the surface one after the other in a big cosmic event many millions of years ago.

I did this field work at the end of June and have been trying to further improve my processing. I have the tendency to oversharpen and heeding the advice of several accomplished lunar imagers, Ithink this may be a bit better in that regard.

I hope you like it, clear skies and be well! And as always, comments/criticism welcomed...
