Did I get the coveted Golden Handle?

I believe I have achieved a new milestone...The Golden Handle! For those not familiar with the Golden Handle it is an illuminated side of a cliff seen at about the 10 o'clock position. Please advise if I am mistaken.

You may have, but the crater to the 7 o'clock position is even more dramatic to my eye. I've often seen the golden handle more pronounced. But yours is certainly there to my eye.
What did you use to take the photo?
I have a Meade LX-90 (8") with a wifi adapter that I run SkySafari 7. I do mostly visual observing - but I sometimes use the scope to take a photo or two. Solar observing is fun too (I have a Thousand Oaks filter for that)
Great photo overall.

Thanks for your comments. I used a Sony a7rv with a 200-600 lens set at 600. I think I will try it again using a 2x teleconverter. We'll see how that goes. Maybe I'll look into telescopes some day.
