"APOLLO 11 VIEW OF MOON---An Apollo 11 oblique view of a large crater located at the northwest edge of the Sea of Nectar."
The "large" crater is Theophilus. Near it, in the path of a distinct ray is Mädler Crater. Fracastorius Crater is the lava-flooded remnant of an ancient lunar impact crater visible near the left edge. Finally, the interesting circular feature, possibly/probably(?) another impact crater nearly submerged by a lava flow is Daguerre...which contains an odd 2-km crater,

that (I think) is the source of the above referenced ray.
Regardless if I'm right or wrong, it's cool.
