Hi Andrew,

Read my observation report from Sunday nights observing here.

I also spent some time on the Homunculus and definately saw those two "eyes" that you refer to. I spent quite a while on it at 525X and had some tremendous views. The two eyes in the SW lobe were very distinct black holes and are visible in the hubble image you have reproduced. They were not so visible at Coonabarabran last week although I only got to about 300X on it out there.

Cheers,
John B
