Nicely done Deirdre - I like the way you inverted the image colours to make it appear as you saw it in the eyepiece - something I've never thought of before! :D

Thanks Martin, and may I say I love your 73PSW sketches, its a great thing to follow a comet with sketches. I followed Machholz C/2004Q2 from 22/12/04 till 2/03/05,with the usual missed evenings of cloud and rain, it was one of the most enjoyable projects.

Thanks for your kind words!!!

Maybe you could do a comet sketch for us? I would like to see more. 73P and M57 will be getting my attention, will be good to sketch its motion, what you think?

Thanks again and clear skies! :D

Deirdre,
Thats a nice sketch, it always reminds me of spider with all those arms spread out.
