  1. Olek,

    The first Saturn (b&w) is very nice. It’s pity You had now good seeing, so there are no stripes.

    good luck and better weather 🙂

  2. Aleksander,

    Very nice Saturn and moons sketches. The planet is so well placed at midnight you just feel compelled to go outside and take a close look.

    Frank 🙂
