Crater GASSENDI on the Moon

This is a photo of the lunar crater Gassendi,which is located in the southwestern quadrant of the Moon. Photo was taken with a Celestron CG-11 using eyepiece projection. The film was TMAX 400, exposure duration was not recorded. The photo suffers from some blurring as a result of camera "mirror slap". I need to try this same shot using the "hat trick" exposure method, which eliminates camera induced vibration.
