I look for objects of the beaten path, Terzan Globulars, Faint Supernova remnants, obscure Planetaries etc etc. To do this I have an observing schedule arranged in RA and Dec. Finder charts from programmes like Megastar or the Guide with an image from the DSS are essential. I keep notes on all objects observed and will re-observe faint objects again and again to confirm what I have seen.
