Leo triplet and the ring in one night at SGL5

[RikM]

Hi All,

I had a fantastic time at the SGL5 starparty. MarkatBeaufort was a great neighbour and gave me my first sight of the leo triplet, that I had been unable to find at home due to LP. I found them again in my own scope and made a little sketch.

I also had a look at M57 through Albedo0.39's 16" dob and it was such an inspiring sight that I had a go at sketching that through my own scope as well.

Thanks for helping make it a great weekend guys.

The Leo triplet is such a great telescopic sight providing you have the skies. They looked great from our dark sky site but a real struggle from home. You have drawn them beautifully!

Great sketches Rik, your triplet one is very nice indeed.

Well done, Rik! And what a wonderful souvenir of the star party, too.

Nice one, Rik....I really like the triplet especially!

Very nice sketches! Truly representative of what one really sees at the eyepiece!

Cheers,
