It was so easy to find these two in my field of vision... almost like they rather found me instead! I did not see anything "fuzzy" about the two... which is something I sort of half expected, but it was a perfect crystal clear night and every star was sharp. So far, this is the most complicated star field I've drawn.

DeleteHello Jenn,
ReplyDeleteI like your doble cluster sketch, well done.
For the brighest stars I add a bright glow around them with photoshop and works well.
Blessings
Thank you so much Luis, that means a lot coming from you... I love your sketch drawings! Great idea about adding the glow... I will need to add some of that touch in the future! Cheers.
