Hello,

This sketch is one of my oldest, I made it one year ago. The crater and the domes were very easy to find and observe, this triangle is my favourite Lunar area. ‘É’ means north, ‘Ny’ means west on the sketch.
My equipment: 110/800 (4′) Newtonian reflector, 2x barlow, 10mm eyepiece, 160x magnification.

Yours sincerely
Balázs Benei
