10"er, eh! Give these a fang:

*NGC 253 in Sculptor, gal. a nice fat streak
*Grus quartet of gal's, NGC 7599 et al. 4 nice gal's, three easily visible
*NGC 55 in Sculptor, irr. gal. about same size & shape as 253, but different structure.
*The Tarantula neb. and environ in the LMC. Stunning in any scope.
*NGC 1553 & 2549 in Dorado, two nice gal's, with 1553 showing nice structure.

These will all challenge and thrill!

Oh, and don't forget Neptune & Uranus. These are really neat to find, with Neptune near Jupiter. Use this chart to help out:
