Stefan,
Congratulations!!!
In this photograph you have captured the craterlet called "MOCR" and the small hillock called "Bear mountain" (both in the Taurus-Littrow valley, and slightly east-southeastward of Apollo 17's landing site).
The "MOCR" was: "Mission Operations Control Room".
I also see the "Light Mantle" near the South Massif, and the "Wessex cleft" between the North Massif and the "Sculptured hills".
I could write a whole book about this image. There's so much to see on it! (lots of details).
Superb!
