Welcome Soldant. Nothing wrong with a 6" EQ reflector. I too observe with such a piece of equipment and have yet to exhause all there is to see with a 6" (and I have logged 510 objects to date...just DSO's). And a 6" shows heaps of not so subtle detail in globs (too many to name but some of the nicely to fully resolved standouts : Omega Centauri, 47 Tucana, Ara glob, Pavo Glob. M22, M55, M13m M4, M10, M12, M5....the list goes on) and the brighter galaxies (M31, M33, M83, NGC 253). Anyway keep the post coming.

Darren
