Hello friends artists,how are you? I sent you my last sketch of Moon
after some days of fog and humidity,the sky was opaque.
After this days ,finally,the sky was clear on zenit,some little light
fog on the horizon.I take my “old”refractor Kenko 80 1000 and with
surprise,i see the Moon very steady,incredible,the seeing perfect
and,thanks of this situation,i made the sketch of great crater
Clavius.Incredible the little particulars that i see….one thanks also
to my refractor,perfect for this observation.
I hope like you.
Ciao,Giorgio.
