I've managed to look at a few hundred objects and most of what I look at is
contained on a couple of simple atlases, so I mainly log to keep track of how
often I am getting out to observe, what the conditions are, and what scopes I
am using most. I feel bad if I don't at least do that much. I also sketch
Jupiter from memory when I come back in, I'm not trying to be scientific or
especially accurate, and I can't seem to get myself to pull out the old sketch
pad when it is five degrees outside. Doing it when I get in does help me to be
more observant when I am looking, too. Each time I get a little better at
memorizing proportions in addition to the obvious features.
