Out under the stars I grabbed another couple of sketches that I hope you enjoy. M39 A nice easy start to the evening. M56 A tight compact globular M15 What I did notice about M15 was that the core was offset, in most globulars that I have observed the core lies at the heart of the cluster surrounded by a circular, or near circular, halo of stars, it's nice to see something a little different. Thanks for taking the time.
