Spectacular lunar craters this morning

Just before dawn this morning the Moon was well-positioned for photography:  in the images below the terminator passes through one of the richest crater fields on the lunar surface, including the giant multiple structure Clavius (Just below the ray crater Tycho) Towards the north pole, to the east of the dark-floored crater Plato, is the Alpine Valley, a deep scar created by a low angle impact.
