Hi Aubrey,
I hope all is well. Many thanks for the nice comments. I spent some time reading through ' Turn Left at Orion' earlier to compare and contrast my sketch of M42 against what's in the book. I can't believe I missed the nebulosity flowing around Theta 2. I find this element of observing a really good way to learn more about what I observed, or what I didn't, as the case may be!
So, I'd be keen to give M42 another go next Friday for sure.
Also, we'll done Paul on observing some more objects last night. I take it they're from the Herschel 400.
Clear skies,
Darren.
