Details:
Despite the daytime observing session, Venus and the Moon were in full view with the unaided eye. An animation was created using a sequence of sketches drawn at the eyepiece on black Strathmore Artagain paper and a combination of white watercolor pencil and Conte’ crayon and a black oil pencil. Rough blending was achieved with my fingertips and fine blending with a paper towel. Link to animation: http://wp.me/aY46X-15r
