Hey Artists!
I send you M. 64 (Black eye).
It is a lens-shaped galaxy with a bright core. The dark band was seen, but the contrast was low.
A faint star was seen just east of the core, but I think its a star in our “Milky way”.
The outer part of the galaxy was diffuse and difficult to see an edge. Info on my sketch.
The sketch was made from Trondheim, Norway with crayons on black paper.
Best wishes from Per-Jonny Bremseth.
Per-Jonny,
A very fine capture of the galaxy with the black eye.
