Photographic Atlas of the Moon

Rating:
Summary: An easy to use moon atlas!
Review: I am not an astronomer, amateur or otherwise. I simply like to look at the moon when I have some free time. The reason I like this atlas is that it shows high resolution photographs through a 40 cm Cassegrain telescope of the terminator day by day through a whole lunar cycle. Now when I have some time to look at the moon I go to the proper page showing the present day's terminator and I see a beautiful photograph with all the main features identified on the photo and a short description/ discussion of these features on the opposing page, no page flipping required. This book is great for beginners although there is a lot of other information for those more experienced. The only drawback is the price which is expensive for 146 pages but then half of this book is high quality photographic reproductions, no blurred out features here.

Summary: avoid
Review: This atlas should be called "An atlas of the moon for inverted telescopes" because all the images in this atlas are upside-down. Very confusing with naked eyes / binos / spotting scopes / mirror image telescopes / erect image telescopes.
