Saw it for the first time last night !

Quite an amazing sight to pan around, all the while with 3 or 4 galaxies in my FOV at any one time.

Definately one to do again :D

It gives a bit of a thrill like seeing Saturn for the first time :) So much to see as you stare at it. And the longer you stare the more you see

I will have to give that a go:astron:
I have done the same in the Virgo cluster & there is lots to see there.
There was a good article in a back issue of Sky & Space on a Galaxy hop through Virgo. Definatly worth a read !
