Details:
Censorinus it is a small crater, roughly 4 x 4 miles, located at about 33 E, 0.4 S on the Mare Tranquilitatis border.
This image shows an area of intense albedo, well resolved from the rest of the surface, up to the point Censorinus itself it is not seen.
Lunation was 6.8 days, colongitude 351 degree and sub solar -1.5
Same ye olde Meade LX3 SCT. Naked eye/binocular observation were fine
Telescope stargazing“s atmospheric conditions awful!. Strong turbulence and thermal unsteadiness were noticeable even at low magnification.
