The Lunar 100
A list of of interesting lunar
features compiled by Charles A. Wood Ph.D. They are arranged in order
of ascending observation difficulty. These also prove to be a challenge
to photograph. Most of these will give you a larger image by clicking
on the image.
I just found out there is a limit to the page length!
