Objects for Barambah?

Hi Randall & All,

It'd be nice to know what you are observing with to make suggestions, but ...

I won't give you an exhaustive list so that others can make suggestions too, but why not these three very good spring globulars -- M30 (Capricornus), M2 (Aquarius) and M15 (Pegasus).

After looking at those three very respectable G.C which are all bright and reasonably well resolved in small/medium sized 'scopes, swing over to 47 Tucanae and see how truly spoilt we are living south of the equator and what we take for granted.

I'm also a big fan of NGC 7009 -- the Saturn nebula in Aquarius and NGC 7184 -- bright, pretty large, nearly edge-on galaxy in Aquarius.

Hope you get some clear skies mate.

Best

Les D
