M64 and M98 Sketches new
      #2423784 - 05/27/08 11:01 PM

It has been some time since the opportunity availed itself to sketch using our 12.5 inch Dob, rigged with the MallinCAM Hyper Color. I have never studied M64 or M98 but found them interesting. M64 detail near the center was fascinating, so we will go back for another visit on a better night. ...another good night to give thanks....

Roland,

I enjoyed seeing these galaxy sketches. Both certainly are beauties of the spring sky and I like the way you captured them.

Roland,

That is such a good job that you do on those galaxies! I like them both.

Thanks Rony and Frank. Had a chance to do 3079 yesterday with the Queen ... using a c8. Nice to be back observing a bit. Roland
