Anybody here use editing software on their sketches? Decided to try a little experimenting with the 'smudge tool' in the software to see what that's like beyond the finger-smudging I did in the original. Interesting effect -- makes it look kind of 'blurry' but in this case this is accurate and seems to look more like what was in the eyepiece than what I was able to draw by hand - seeing was kind of "eh" last night (as can be seen by the heavy 'canalization' of features) but it's been days and I needed to get out there and check out Mars again. Didn't get very good positions or definition of individual features but it seems like I was getting better able to see more contrast and shading variations on the planet this time.
