Thanks very much Matt. The pics have been a great help. I've got a book on the Messier Objects, so I'm really excited about trying to find a few of the large ones because I think the light pollution will be a bigger problem when the DSOs? One last question - I'm trying to answer is how best to understand the coordinates of objects in the constellation? So the book gives me the coordinates of the Orion Nebula but I'm not sure what's the best way of finding it. Is there a book that's useful for that type of thing? Thanks again for the assistance.
