Yes indeed, what a way to celebrate 1000 posts than with an outstanding report. Congratulations Les. Hydra is a great area for galaxies, if you have the dark sky and aperture to see some of the fainter ones. Thanks for your advice and encouragement, I personally have gained much from that, and I am sure the other visual observers here will agree. So much more to learn though. That's the great thing about visual observing, it really is a journey of discovery, one that we can see with our own eyes rather than via cameras and technology. It still blows me away that I can gaze on a galaxy millions of k's away.
