August good targets rising?

About to try my luck with a clear sky tonight. Any good nebulae or bigger galaxies rising in the east after dark?

the helix nebulae is up in the east. only know this because its between Fomalhaut and Neptune, and I'm trying to find Neptune.

Thanks mate. It's a little too far around to the north and over Canberra's sky-glow for me.

I'm now shooting NGC300 which is nearly South East and in a far darker direction for me. Going for 10 minute exposures. :D

First time in a while.... :D

ah, Canberra, my bad!

nice galaxy! if I get bored finding Neptune, I might have a loooksee at that if I can find it when its gets a bit higher for me :)

good luck with the imaging Baz!

Thanks mate. You too.
