Registax: Piccolomini Rupes Altai Pictures by astronomical telescope

Figure 1 to 4: 30 frames, 85% lowest quality.
Figure 5: 2 frames, 100% lowest quality.

These are images processed in Registax, and shows the crater Piccolomini and Rupes Altai, which is a 'border' that starts from the crater. At this angle, sunlight is perfect to highlight the central peaks of Piccolomini, and the depth of 4.5 km, and Rupes Altai, which is actually the second edge of a large crater surrounding Mare Nectaris.
