Here are a few sketches I've done using my 11X70 binos to show just a little of how capable binos are as an astro tool. The one of the comet (Lovejoy) and of M8 & M20 were from a dark site and it shows the soft mottling and dark nebulosity that a scope just showing M8 or M20 alone just cannot show. The one of Eta Carina was from my home in Sydney.
