This is report from unusual observation - no any star or planet, but Sněžka - the highest mountain of Czech republic (1602 metres above sea). I made it on June 9, 2005, when I came to Pardubice observatory and I was told it is clear air (Sněžka is distanced 80 km - over 50 miles from Pardubice to north). I made this drawing through refractor 0,15m with f16 (amplification 73) from 19:18 - 20:27 UT. My friend Václav Knoll made this photos.
