Description

Montes Recti is approx. 90km x 20km of size, and 1800m high

Montes Teneriffe is approx. 111km long and 15km wide, and also very high ~1450m

Both are located close to crater Plato.

What makes the image so interesting is the light coming from the side which produces an effect that makes the tips of the mountains look like snow covered (these are no wavelet errors). The image was taken at almost 8m focal length. The seeing was very good in this night.

Please enjoy!
