Chalk-/charcoal sketch of Damoiseau area

[acr_astro]

Dear all,

yesterday evening I had to wait some hours until the cloud cover vanished and I could start observing the moon. When "travelling" along the terminator a strange "nested" crater drew my attention. When looking up in my lunar atlas, I figured out its name is Damoiseau. SInce I used the focal extender together with the 6.7 eyepiece, it ended up in a continous sequence of push - sketch - push - sketch - (...) to keep the crater in the eyepiece. It's nice to observe the details of smaller craters with diameter of just 20 miles but it gets a bit hectic for sketching. However, here's the result:

Telescope: Martini 10" f/5 truss-tube Dobsonian
Eyepiece: Explore Scientific 6.7mm/82° with Explore Scientific 2x focal extender (resulting in ~370x)
Date & Time: April 24th, 2021 / 2315-0015 CET
Location: home terrace, Dusseldorf region, Germany
Technique: Koh-i-Noor charcoal, whitecoal and chalk pencils on Hahnemühle 'black book' sketching paper
Size: 15x21cm
 
The imbrian crater Damoiseau is located inside the larger crater Damoiseau M and southwest of the flooded crater Damoiseau H at the shore of Oceanus Procellarum.  
 
Clear skies!
