Those are some great sketches Roland (& Linda). The two of you captured some nice detail in all the sketches.

Roland and Linda,

Thank you both for posting your excellent observations of the southeast region of the Moon and the crater Janssen. You have both recorded this section of the Moon perfectly. I look forward to your future observations.

Carlos

Roland and Linda,

A most impressive collection of lunar drawings of the moon both wide views and close ups. It is good to see you are getting quality observing time.

Frank

I second Frank's comment.

You two people are such great sketchers.
Looking at those sketches makes my appetite grow.

Roland and Linda

Beautiful artwork in unison! It must be a great experience to have one anothers sketching to compare with at the moment.

Once again you have inspired me to add to what I began a couple nights ago without the close-up detail as before but now clouds persist. Such is life in astronomy sketching.

I look forward to both or your next works together,

Mark
