Hello!
I would like to present you my latest sketch made at the astronomical meeting in the Bieszczady Mountains.
The second version is a little brighter for darker monitors
Object: Messier 97 (Owl Nebula)
Equipment: Meade Lightbridge 8” with LVW 13mm and UHC-S filter.
Technique: Pencil on white paper, inverted, some corrections with GIMP (especially stars)
Place and date: May 10, 2013. Natura Park, Stężnica, Bieszczady Mountains
Author: Aleksander Cieśla (Wimmer)
On the night of 11/28/2012 the Full Moon was shining brightly with Jupiter as its companion. The sketch was done while looking through an old (circa 1960’s) pair of Tasco 8-15×50 binoculars which I recently had refurbished. I used the binocs at 15x for the sketch which was done in Warren county NJ, USA on a laptop computer.
Hey Artists!
In this year of bright comets and while waiting for comet ISON, I will
mainly send sketches of these objects to show what can be seen in the coma!
Comet IKEYA – ZHANG was a bright and activ comet which showed interesting
structures in the coma. I observed before it was dark (twilight) to see the jets !
This comet is the same one as Hevelius observed in the year 1660.
Info on the sketch.
I used crayons (watercolor) on black paper.
Loc.: Trondheim, Norway.
Best wishes and clear sky from Per-Jonny Bremseth.

I made this sketch of Saturn from my backyard on April 23th, but left it lying around far too long to finish drawing it from memory. So tonight I took the opportunity to do some more observation and complete the sketch. Seeing was bad as Saturn hovered low above Maastricht city. The moon probably is Tethys.
