First moon sketch with binoviewer

[acr_astro]

Hi all,

tonight I could try my new Baader Maxbright binoviewer. Of course, I first looked at the moon.

Even with the cheap 25mm "Super" bundle eyepieces which came along with my telescopes, the three-dimensional view was exciting!   

I picked my pens and sketching paper and did a sketch of the whole visible moon - not just a single crater. So here it is:

Telescope: Celestron Nexstar 127 SLT

Eyepieces and accessories: 25mm "Super", Baader Maxbright binoviewer, Skywatcher Amici prism

Date & Time: August 21st 2015, 2030-2130 CEST

Locaction: home terrace, Dusseldorf region, Germany

Technique: Koh-i-Noor Gioconda Chalk-, Whitecoal- and extra charcoal pens on Daler Rowney Ebony black sketching paper (180g/sqm)

Clear skies!

That's dedication... That probably tHas taken you longer to sketch then a long exposure DSO would take.

Nice sketch...
