[Stonius (Markus)]

For me, they're very different experiences.


If I look in the eyepiece and the object is immediately obvious, I feel like I've *seen it.


But if I wouldn't have known it was there with out first knowing to look for it; or if it is something that requires long minutes of work with averted vision to *just make out, I feel like I've managed to *detect it, but it doesn't really feel the same as *seeing it.


Eg, you might *see the core of a Galaxy and with effort, *detect its arms.


That sort of thing.


Not saying one is superior to the others, just that they are different experiences to me.


Anyone else?
