Rob, NGC 7552 & 7582 are mag 10.6. If I went to mag 10.6 I would have more than 260 galaxies.
I could restrict it to mag 10.6 and SB 13 but that cuts out the LMC, SMC, M31, M33, Cen A, N55 etc. Where do I draw the line?
The most difficult part of this project is choosing nebulae, because they have no magnitudes, and open clusters because they can be bright and unimpressive.
I will look for the best NGC & IC OC brighter than mag 7.5.
