I got some decent weather finally and some good sketches I thought I would share. Well... I think their pretty good Please keep in mind... I have never been very good with the Galaxy/Nebula sketches... still working on that. Better at planets and clusters. Below are my sketches (and notes) of Jupiter and Andromeda with M110 to the bottom left.

Very cool. Frank Post Extras:       ozzy9039 sage Reged: 11/12/07 Loc: Huntsville, Al Re: New Sketches [Re: frank5817]       #3385723 - 10/12/09 05:11 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Thanks.. I use the reverse color (black on white vs. white on black) in case I ever want to print one; this way I save on ink. The notes help a lot and I can see slight differences when doing so. One time I actually sketched Mars... and had a bit of a blur in an area... I was disapointed and didn't know what it was, but to my surprise, I saw online the next day or so that there was a report of a sandstorm on Mars that night... Awesome!
