M65 + M66

[Wiu-Wiu]

Finally got a clear night under the stars again! To make up for the months of star deprivation, we drove 150km to a dark spot for an all-nighter. 

What a night it was! Logged 50 new DSO's and chose 4 views to sketch. This is the first one.

 

These two lovely galaxies are the easiest of the Leo triplet.

the third one is just out of view, on the bottom of the sketch. I didn't add it because this magnification brought out more detail in both Messiers and a lower one didn't quite add more to the view.

I have enormous admiration for those who can produce sketches like this. Well done.

Thanks for sharing... I can't wait until I'm at a dark site again, but until than we can live it through sketches such as yours.
