Very nice job indeed, and impressive target.
As your neighbor from São Paulo, Brazil, I should try it some day.
Thanks for showing it.
Thank you Rodrigo. If you give it a shot, dont miss also the other part (and my next sketch i hope) of the Hydra-Centaurus supercluster: the centaurus cluster, just near by. Wonderful targets. Leo
