Description:
This was my first view of a double and I found it interesting to see the
difference in the colors a white (primary) and light blue (secondary). I think 66x was my best view with a 15mm Possi but the pair were split at all
magnifactions. I hope my description become better as I gain experience.
Thanks
Mike
