Uranus and Jupiter Drawing!

[Paul G. Abel]

Greetings All!

Here's a drawing I made of Uranus on 23rd August 2010. At a power of 312x and 400x the bright EZ was distinctly visible!

Here's a recent Jupiter drawing of mine made on 31st August 2010:

Best wishes,

Fabulous details in Jupiter, and the best Uranus sketch i've ever seen.

That Uranus sketch has given me goose bumps!! Wow !! I'm really bowled over by that to be honest. Nice one:)

HOW on EARTH did you get so much detail in Uranus?!!!?

[Paul G. Abel]

Hi Sam: Lot's of hard practice- you should see what details Carlos Hernandez can pull out- his efforts really do beat me!

'Blimey !' to the Uranus sketch - must do some hard staring at it with my scope.

Incredible to see detail on Uranus. I saw Uranus two nights ago with a 16" Dob, and still nothing was visible on the planet itself (mainly because of the seeing I guess) Great sketch!

Detail on Uranus wow! Excellent work. Knowing that details can be within amatuer reach will have me looking harder next time!

Really nice, wish i had an artistic flare! mine would just end up looking like my 3 year old sone drew it lol

That's quite a feat. I have tried four times in september to see the EZ on Uranus, and failed to see more than a pale blue disc on each occasion.

Paul, an amazing drawing and showing detail similar to this drawing you did with the 24-inch Lowell Refractor - September 12, 2009. Well done.

The detail that you manage to sketch with an 8" scope is incredible.
