I decided focus my sketch on the area of sky in between Perseus and Pegasus, which in my location put Aries near the horizon, and Andromedia toward the top of comfortable neck angles. I was not familiar with this slice of sky so I figured out what constellations I was looking at afterwards." gemini://gem.librehacker.com/gemlog/starlog/20241004-0.gmi
