mikeDnight 9,730 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Prompted by a post by Grumpy Martian regarding instruments for comet searching, I sifted through a few past sketch books and found these! In no particular order!! Edited February 16, 2018 by mikeDnight 13 Link to post Share on other sites

RJ901 43 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 These are awesome!! Having just started with sketching, I have hopes that in 35 years I’ll be able to look back on a stack of sketches half as brilliant. Great stuff! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm really glad you've started sketching some of your observations. It really is a great way to record what you see, and if you're lazy like me, you'll find it far more pleasant to muse over your sketches than read copious notes. A picture speaks a thousand words, so the saying goes! Plus you'll begin to see more, because your concentration is heightened! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
