Some fascinating lunar features

Really clear skies tonight allowed me to obtain reasonable images of two interesting lunar features:

The Alpine Valley - an oblique meteoroid impact near the crater Plato
The Straight Wall - a massive slip fault near the crater Arzachel

These two objects are a great way to assess the 'seeing' conditions and how well your optics are performing!
