easy galaxies

This time of the year Andromeda Galaxy(M31)is a fine binoculars object low in the north. Just locate the 2nd star on the hind leg of Pegasus then star hop another 2 stars further north.
The Silver Coin galaxy(NGC253) in Sculptor looks stunning in my 12". It is high in the south halfway between beta-Ceti and alpha-Sculptoris
