Folks:
I just uploaded two old moon pics of mine that show the lunar south
limb. One of them (CASHCRAFT_20050122tttt.jpg) shows the keyhole
landmark and others that we have discussed recently and I believe
Faustini as well. the tttt in the file name stands in for the time
of imaging which I need to see if I can find on the original video
file which may be on my observatory computer. The other image
(CASHCRAFT_20080808tttt) is not as good and I can't find the
landmarks. It seems a bit to the east of the area of interest.

I was able to find the exact time for the south limb image taken on
Aug 8, 2008, 7:30 pm EST (0039 UT the next day). I changed the
name of the file to:
CASHCRAFT_200808080030.jpg
I also uploaded a rotated, cropped and partially labeled version,
CASHCRAFT_200808080030cr&lab.jpg
This image was obtained an a time of unfavorable libration and
none of the landmarks pointing to Faustini is visible. I believe it was
just over the horizon.
I was unable to find the original .avi from which the image
CASHCRAFT_20050122tttt.jpg was produced. I now realize that
image was taken on a long since crashed and replaced computer
and I only have the processed image because I transferred it to
my laptop.
