Description

Apollo 8 Hasselblad image from film magazine 17/C - Lunar Orbit. Planté crater at left, within Keeler crater.
This photo was used in Figure 2-71 (a) of the Analysis of Apollo 8 Photography and Visual Observations (SP-201), which has the following caption:

Apollo 8 photographs used in model of convergent photography. (a) Apollo 8 frame 2703, (b) Apollo 8 frame 2704.

Text from Analysis of Apollo 8 Photography and Visual Observations referring to this figure is as follows:

Model of Convergent Photography (Magazine C)
Photographs 2703 and 2704 from magazine C, as shown in figure 2-71, were selected for the second model. This particular model was selected for evaluating the Apollo 8 convergent photography for photogrammetric processing. These are also black-and-white photographs taken with the 80-mm lens. This model covers the entire crater 302 at 11° S, 162° W. The scale of this model was also obtained from measurements made on Lunar Orbiter II medium-resolution frame 33. The Sun angles were 41° and 42°, respectively.
A contour map of this model, as shown in figure 2-72, was compiled using the same procedure for leveling as in the first model. The original map scale is 1:200,000, and the contour interval is 250 meters, larger than the first model. This may show the difference between vertical and convergent photography. The scale of the full-sized map is a 8.4480 magnification of the 1:1,689,600 model scale.
