JANUARY 2015 OBSERVERS CHALLENGE – NGC-1569

Galaxy, NGC 1569 sketch using a No. 2 pencil, and a blank 5 x 8 note card.  

Inverted pencil sketch via computer by Fred Rayworth of Nevada.   My scanner is not working due to an update in operating systems with my MacBook Pro.  A new flat bed scanner is on the agenda for purchase this year.

The following image, compliments of Dr. James Dire of Hawaii, using an 8-inch RC f/8 telescope, with an exposure of 90 minutes.
