Hi artists,all o.k.?I’m o.k.,i follow in this time the Giant Jupiter,near the opposition,with my dob.10″.Wath awful image in the eyepiece! Nextly i sent you my sketch about this.
But this Summer i made,before “Giant Veil Nebula” ,the sketches about the splendid Nebula in Sagittarius.Is the first time that i observe this with my Dob.10″…..Incredible vision!!Wow! I made the sketches from 10,20 p.m.to 01,00 a.m.
