The sketch of M32, well...I have never been under skies that allow that detailed a view using an 8 inch or even larger. However, I have seen the star cloud on many occasions. But, to be capable of seeing that detail under Florida skies is amazing in itself.
It would seem that some of you are under the impression that my entire sketch is of M31/32/110. I guess I didn't include enough information. As I mentioned to Don, the main body of the sketch is a naked eye view of the constellations Andromeda, Cassiopeia, and Perseus with the Milky Way in the background. The insets are of M31 (and companions), and the Double Cluster, which both appear as small fuzzy patches in the naked eye view. I hope this clears things up a bit. My apologies for the confusion.
