Expecially the first one depicts beautifully the rays coming out of the craters and spanning over quite long distances - like a spiders web on the making over the good old Moon. On the second pic the terminator has almost spooky presence - it cuts off any chances for the light to emerge and forces the deepness of the space to fall upon the splendid texture of the Lunar landscape...
