Thanks Rony and Mike

I observed the moon at 1 ~ 2 AM this morning July 15. Spectacular with seeing at a 10/10! Then Jupiter. I have never seen so much detail. . . yet with all this, I was too tired to sketch so I snapped photos with a tripod mounted Sony Cybershot 5-mgpxl over the eyepiece. Jupiter was showing the Red Spot Hollow and in the NEB another hollow oval or two. The teminator on the moon had so much detial that it fatigued me just to observe it!

Perhaps I'll make a sketch later today from memory and the photos.

Mark
