When I helped my father un-box and set-up his Meade LX90 200 mm SCT a few months back, we were in the backyard in daylight, and we needed a "reasonably distant" target to get the finder-scope roughly aligned. I pointed the scope at a joint in a concrete kerb about 30 metres away, racked in and out to find focus, and got a nice close-up view of some ants going about their food-foraging business. If we had a camera attached, the footage would almost have been worthy of a David Attenborough documentary!
