Ok guy's, here's my effort,

After about four night observations of the Helix I started this sketch.
It's still not complete, as there are 3-4 stars to the north of the Central
star, actually to the NE and NW, unfortunately the seeing has been crap
over the last couple of nights for me to be able to complete it.

Anyways, 8" f/6 newt 10mm XW over two nights, waiting, observing, coffee, ciggerettes, JJJ

and I wish the damn scanner had an "astrosketch" setting.

Also the stars within the neb in my sketch are several mag's brighter than they
visually appear.
