Start with the brighter nebulae first and then work your way to the brighter galaxies and then the fainter stuff. Globular clusters are a good thing to hunt down as well.

Thank you for the advice. I just took a look at your website, those pictures of the spiders are incredible. I've never seen them in so much detail.
