Hi,

I send my sketch of the M57. This is planetary nebula. I live in the countryside and have good conditions for observing faint objects. M57 looks very nice in my 150x magnification telescope.

NGC 6905

NGC 6905

Here is my sketch of NGC 6905, a planetary nebula in Delphinus. I made the sketch from my backyard in Orleans, Ontario, Canada July 29, 0025 EDT. The sketch was done with graphite on white bond paper using my 120mm f8.3 refractor with a 13mm Hyperion EP with an OIII filter. The seeing was above average and the nebula was quite bright in averted vision with a nice blue tint and a bright central star.

16” Zhumell reflector f/4.5 on a non-tracking Dobsonian mount, Baader Planetarium Hyperion 8-24mm Mark III (75-225x magnification)

80°F, 69% H, 5.8 SSE winds, clear, Pickering 6, T 2/6

Discovered in 1787 by William Herschel, this emission nebula lies SW of open cluster M52 and west of open cluster Czernik 43. It lies at heart of 8th magnitude star TYC4279-1582-1 where two imaginary lines form a cross-shaped star pattern with 7th magnitude HIP115198 at the top (southwest), TYC4279-930-1 (northeast), TYC4279-381-1 (southeast), and TYC4279-1203-1 (northwest).

75x magnification: At first glance, the 7th magnitude star to the SW drowned out any nebulosity of NGC7635. My only certainty that I was in the right area was by knowing the star pattern and where NGC7635 was located within it. The use of an OIII filter brought out a faint, clear circular glow around the 8th magnitude star.

225x magnification: Without the OIII, there was a faint circular glow with no definitive structure. With the OIII and adverted vision, the nebula was elongated north to south and extended more to the NW with some darkened areas within it. The edges were diffuse.

Hey Artists!

I send you “the great nebula in Orion”, M. 42, restaurated from my org. watercolorcrayon
org. sketch to a pencil and pen on white paper (inverted). Info on the sketch!
This is the most beautiful D.S- object seen from Trondheim, Norway.
I used a medium power on my scope to observ the central part with the four “Trapezium- stars”.
Hope you like the sketch!

Best wishes from Per-Jonny Bremseth.

Messier 24 and Environment

Hello!

I made a marathon sketch in the past month; I drew the M24 and the environment. It was very hard work, but it is also interesting. In the drawing are visible these objects: M24 star-cloud, NGC6603 the popular open cluster in M24, M18 open cluster, M17 Omega nebula, NGC6561 diffuse nebula, Ic1283 diffuse nebula, NGC6589 open cluster, Sharpless-35 diffuse nebula and Barnard 92-93 dark nebulae. My next target of the Scutum star-cloud… 🙂

Observation time: 2012 July-August (a lot of nights)
Equipment used: 10X50 binoculars
Field of view: 6° (360′)
Location: Nagyvarsány/Hungary
