Hi Scott, thanks for the welcome. I actually made a sketch on paper at the eyepiece and then did the drawing you see in a computer program based on my sketch.
Special Ed, good point about the FOV! I used a 15mm Orion Ultrascopic in my 8" f/6 dob so the field was roughly 0.72 degrees or 43 arc minutes. Even though my image is of a square it's pretty much the same proportion of what I saw through 43' FOV.
I'll update the image when I get home from work tonight, thanks for the help!!!
