Between the two large seas Serenitatis and Tranquillitatis, there is this "claw" which are Haemus mountains and some craters as Menelaus or-Bakri.
In these photos is observed the border between these two great Mare,by the color composition of the soil. Mare Serenitatis has a lighter color, and Tranquillitatis ,darker.Crater Plinius is on the top of the "claw".
