From Maurolycus to Moretus
In this image we can see a lot of big and spectacular impact craters, like Barocius, Baco, Cuvier, Lillius and Jacobi. "The clarity of the view and the exquisite detail - right down to the countless, tiny craters peppering the whole scene - is what stands out to me in this striking image. It's reminiscent of the picture we've seen taken by spacecraft orbiting distant worlds, and certainly every bit as evocative." Will Gater Born Digital photograph entitled 'From Maurolycus to Moretus' taken by Jordi Delpeix Borrell on the 30th November 2015 at L'Ametlla del Vallès, Barcelona, Spain.
