I had a good look at the crab nebula for the first time too. I love finding stuff with just stellarium and a red dot finder.
I'm yet to wake myself up early am to catch the still air and lagoon nebula. Maybe tomorrow.
What scope do you observe with Glen?

Tim over the years I have had everything up to a 16" f5 Dob, but these days it's an ED150DX. Was also heavily into imaging for many years with Newts and a Mak-Newt.
