Comments: Here attached is my sketch from last night December 16th
I decided to go with a binocular sketch in my 40-year-old Carl Zeiss 10X50's because the view was better than my telescope view despite the moon, the wind and the cold. No attachment for a tripod so I hand held and drew the comet and M45 in between fast-moving cloud.
