Seas, lakes, and bays ... Continued ...

It turns out my good friend and fellow astronomer Jan Timmermans was also imaging this exact area of the Lunar surface just four and a half hours earlier. The time difference was just sufficient enough to capture the march of the Lunar dawn shadows across the surface, so we embarked on an international collaboration and came up with a nice animation of the two frames. Pop over to his website to see the result at:
