Hi Wes & All,

Enjoyed your report mate. Will put NGC 427 on the list to-do sometime soon. Was a tad surprised a galaxy that bright and well south has thus far escaped me. The NGC 439 group is also less than a half-degree north-east and is surrounded by a cluster of seven faint galaxies.

Also about a half-degree SE is another grouping of galaxies around ESO 352-27 that looks interesting and a few of the brighter ones show evidence of interaction. It is only about half the distance to NGC 427 going by red-shift.

Best,

L.
