thanks guys, I'm glad you liked it.

thanks Les, not just for your kind words, but also thank you for introducing to those first two galaxies. if not for your article, i would have never even considered searching for those galaxies, and with such a wonderful guide, I'm confident about finding NGC 253. I'll also be sure to grab a copy of AS&T when it comes out.

i have thought about looking for Andromeda, but i think the light pollution would wash it out. i live on the southern side of Geelong, so between me and the the northern sky is a 25 km array of city lights, and a cloud of orange haze.

I'll have look for them all next time we travel to our farm in central Victoria (light pollution is a myth up there! ).

thanks, jarrod
