Pencil sketch of H-alpha solar disc, April 17th 2020

Dear all,

today I tried to improve my pencil sketching capabilities for the H-alpha solar disc. I must admit that at least for me, the result pretty much depends of the selected material - at least I get better results with charcoal compared with pencil.
However, it was fun to do it:

Telescope: Lunt LS50THaB600PT
Eyepiece: Celestron X-cel 10mm
Date & Time: April 17th, 2020 / 1130-1200 CEST
Location: home terrace, Dusseldorf region, Germany
Technique: Koh-i-Noor 1900 Toison d'or pencils (4H, 2H, HB, 2B) on sketching paper
Size: 3.25" diameter

Clear and sunny skies!

Awesome!

Thanks, Achim, for sharing. It's a welcome new look for solar sketches.
