We observed the following galaxies and carefully referenced them against Images from Wassilieff’s CCD Images Of Southern Galaxies. We also observe as routine the adjacent areas around galaxies for comets or any new anomaly. We only used 2 eyepieces, a 30mm Takahashi and a 12.5mm Takahashi. The 30 Tak to locate and the 12.5 Tak to scrutinize.
