Hi Mario, a logical starting point for galaxies in the early evening would be Andromeda M31, and M33 the Pinwheel galaxy nearby in Triangulum, Sculptor's galaxy NGC253 the silver dollar is a beauty and these three are the biggest brightest galaxies about this time of year before midnight.
Being so they should give you an indication of what your 6" Mak. is capable of visually at least and with or without light pollution.
Do you have a hand held planisphere to help you find the galaxies?
The astro magazines have a starmap to help us find these three galaxies and most include them.
Various Sites like skymap and celestia might be a help for printoff charts.
I dont have links at hand right now as i use skymap pro 10 software but maybe other members can provide a planetarium link and better star map weblinks. ?
