Hi there

Got out for a couple of hours on the 20th/21st and got a couple of sketches down.

I hope you like them.

M57

M27

M11

M11 was difficult due to constantly going back and forth between eyepiece and sketch and resulted in a lot of eye strain.

The nebulae never seemed to be finished for me as I was always adding a little bit more until I told myself to stop.

I am pleased with what I captured and thanks for looking.

Hi Paul

Excellent sketches that give a true representation of what others can expect to see in their eyepieces. You must feel a close affinity to these these objects after sketching them. I love the flying duck formation in M11.

Excellent nebulae, Paul. They look exactly like what i see in the eyepiece, but i need to use an O-III filter to detect that much structure. Well done!

[pbyrne]

Thank you all for the kind words. It's such encouragement that makes me want to strive for more.
