Much less averted vision is needed for the arms of 1365 when at the darker Leyburn skies where the drawing was done (and also when 1365 is high in the sky). Remember we were looking back through the brighter eastern skies on Saturday night from The Grove

Atlas - NGC 1566 (Spanish dancer) also displays her spirals in my scope and is easily in my top 10 too!
