  1. Krzysztof,

    Very “cold” view of Venus. I see, you enjoy gimp. I am waiting for more sketch like this.

  2. Excellent work Krzysztof, very enjoyable and it looks like full cut off lighting too ;o)

    Warm regards, for a winter sketch, Dale

  3. Krzysztof,

    Beautiful sketches of the evening “star” both naked eye and and scope view.

  4. Very nice, Krzysztof! I love the “glow” around the planet in the telescopic sketch — very realistic.
