SGL 2023 Challenge 2 - Sketches

Another white light sketch from the other day man I love this wedge it’s transformed my daytime fun and sketching in the daytime is strange as your not under a red light 🤣🤣🤣

Just before the deadline closes then, here's something new from me. I have hardly ever tried to sketch the moon, or parts of it - too much detail. Last night I gave it a go. The view below of Rupes Recta is not the eyepiece view, it's just a small part of it. I used a Hb to mark out the main features' outlines and 5/6b for shading. The scaling is slightly wrong in the lower left quadrant, but I'm still happy with the final result.

One more! A bit of white light this morning after my more usual Ha sesh.

Pretty good seeing, so out came the long achro, continuum filter, and zoom ep. 

AR 3285/8

Very good detail seen in this region. Controversially, I think the view was better without the filter. Well, it was brighter, maybe not better.

What a fantastic response to this challenge.  It is now closed.  I am a little indisposed at the moment so the results may be a little delayed.
