I ‘m relatively new to astro sketching, actually this is my second serious attempt.
Pictured is Mare Imbrium in the middle, with large craters from north to south: Plato, Archimedes and Eratosthenes. I ‘m really starting to love this area.
The drawing was made with pastel crayons on white paper, directly behind a WO Megrez 80 II FD, 123x magnification. Hope you like it!

Erik,
A very nice impression of what is also one of my favourite areas of the moon. Thanks for sharing.
