Hello,

after many moon-sketches and planet pictures, I decided that it´s time to draw a deep-sky-object. A very interesting globular cluster ist Messier 71 in Sagitta.

It is my first globular cluster and I needed about half an hour to fix the brighter stars around the object. After this the finer stars followed in the center of M 71.

It demanded a high concentration, but I’m happy about the result.

So here is my Messier 71.

Best greetings Uwe

  2. Hallo

    I´ve never observed M71 before. But on your sketch it looks very interesting, how it´s lying in a quite rich starfield. So I think I will give it a try.

    Michael
