Drawn as seen this morning from the Blue mountains west of sydney.
Equipment used was a Lunt LS100THa singlestacked scope and a 3.5mm 70 degree eyepiece.

Excellent drawing Ivan, as good as photographic quality. Will have to get back into more frequent observing, I missed out on this today.

Thanks Jeff. I had a quick look through my PST first to see if there was anything happening, it was quite a sight, worth taking out the bigger scope.
