Frank, is the bright region just south and along the NPC a purposeful feature you sketched? I ask because I saw it and am looking for others who may have seen it, too, at this CM.
Norme,
Yes, but this sketch was made in December of 2009.
I have not sketched Mars yet this year. I am waiting for my first chance.
Good sketching to you.
