Sounds like a fantastic evening, well done!

Low power reversed images are more difficult to get your head around and do the mental flip but you can get used to it. I have never used reversed printed charts since they are useless for unaided eye use.

On a Dob mounted 'scope you usually talk about left/right and up/down but you could also think in terms of north/south and east/west although the latter is much easier on an EQ mounted 'scope since that is how the axes or rotation are oriented.

Sounds like you've mastered whatever method you have used and it's working for you. Enjoy!
