Good report Wade. Lots of galaxies on view at the moment especially if you have a decent Northern sky.

The attached word doc lists galaxies in Virgo brighter than mag 10. Orestis, you should be able to spot them all, and maybe some fainter ones too.

Also, Markarian's Chain, a line of galaxies you can follow one by one. I was shown it by glenc. Totally cool! Some info below:
