Mike73 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Great stuff Rory and you've reminded me how nice M22 is so I'II try and get another look at it before it disappears from view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rory Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 it is mike. my favourite object to date for me. okay might be because it's also most recent and freshest in my head. my sketch's are not great i know ,more for personal reference than artistic show. but i wish i was better because an object like m22 deserves it .

Mike73 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I dont know just how much 'art' there really is in sketching? I think its more of a case of advanced dot to dot There are way too many variables to take it too seriously. Size of scope used, seeing, transparency and how experienced the person is at observing will always make one persons sketch completely different to the next! I think its really helping me to be a better observer though which is more important to how your sketch appears on paper the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wookie1965 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I hope so i`ve only found two Messiers m15 and m31 and both looked the same except m31 was bigger, i need go to dark sky site. Collimation is spot on, there was a bit of dew maybe that was having an effect aswell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
