Venus as a star, once more,…
Object Name (Venus transit…)
Location (Néoules – Provence – France)
Date (06-06-2012 & 13-06-2012)
Media (red wine, graphite pencil, watercolour)
Refractor 1000/102
I made this sketch directly while the sun was rising, just with pencil on white paper.
I had to sketch very quickly.
Today, at home I used yellow watercolour and black for the dark part of the sky
For the clouds I used red wine pigment, from here we are in France.
I was on a hill, the time for this sketch was 3:50, 2 or 3 minutes before the theoretical sunrise time, so my telescope was downwardly inclined. Strange and fantastic souvenir.
Clear sky to you all
