Suspect Surveyor lll in shadow


"Editor's Note: The deep gloom of the crater in the lower picture is totally inconsistent with the upper photo, In addition, there is lens flare in the color picture which is very unusual as a result of side lighting. Moreover, it is highly unusual to see a perfectly circular lens flare." http://www.aulis.com/jackstudies_8.html
