The "Great Smudge" is certainly remarkable, and I too was very excited about seeing it. Viewing was good from here (Bright, Vic - 36.75d S) a month or two back, when it was at its highest. Could see it with the naked eye, and it was beautiful with binoculars (12x50) as the FOV covered the whole object, with the faint ghost of the full extension showing. Disappointing when I put my (small) scope on it, as only the central brightness showed.
Cheers -
