Arrgh. VP beat me to it!
Anyway here's my contrast enhanced view of the southern multi-ring basin, and two other smaller multi-ring craters up at the top of the image. The bright reflection of the outer ring of the southern ring basin is visible (and bright like you'd expect). (And I'm gonna assume that's a hot pixel or cosmic ray hit just off Mercury's limb) -Mike [EDIT: The edge of the southern basin at the terminator is gonna look really dramatic as we get closer!] -------------------- Some higher resolution images available at my photostream: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31678681@N07/
