[Lvas] M-16 and nebulosity

[roger ivester]

All,

 

Re: M-16 and nebulae,

 

I forgot to mention that I have three sketches using a 90mm Meade ETX at 78x. 

 

A note:

 

"The star cluster is much more noticeable than the nebula. The cluster is small, sparse and scattered, with mostly bluish-white stars. The nebulosity is very faint and difficult. 

 

A dark sky is very important for maximum contrast, and a 10-inch or larger scope is required, if you plan to see a view anywhere close to Rob's image.
