Mars 13/8/2018

The dust is still washing out the normally dark detail visually. Here is the eyepiece sketch made last night showing Syrtis Major close to the limb, a feature that would normally be dark and in your face, but was lacklustre to say the least.

As usual the drawing was made using my FC100DC and a prism diagonal, so the view is north top.

Excellent sketch.. definitely reflects what I was seeing through the eyepiece of a descent night.
