Thumbs up Galaxy #2

Being only new to this, the smiles on my face just keep on coming knowing that i am going to keep on seeing things for the first time. A few nights ago i saw my 1st Galaxy, NGC2640 sth west of Delta Velorum, have not been able to view it a 2nd time tho, i just can`t find it again.. Last night i saw my 2nd Galaxy NGC5128 nth of Omega Centauri. As i am only using a very small scope using the 10mm eye piece as i have found that the 4mm is just no good (no clarity) i am so happy to be able to view these galaxys, clusters and what ever else i can find as i have had my scope for only 4 weeks now. Both galaxys were nice sized fuzz balls to view but boy, was i over the moon looking at them...
