As I head to my eyepiece case, the sky suddenly becomes completely opaque, as is the custom in Central Victoria this winter.

lol it wouldn't be Victoria / Melbourne without permanent winter cloud cover.
NGC 5566 is a lovely group, the largest member is very bright, the edge on spiral to the west takes a bit more effort but is a nice needle-like filament of light with a slightly brighter/bulging core. I failed to see 5569 from my place.
500x on the Sombrero..that is something I will now try...next year as it will have long gone by the next clear Cloudtorian night.
