Thanks Alexander and Sab. Alas I didn't get your post before heading to Snake Valley, Sab. But I took your list Alex - I didn't write notes or sketch amongst the buzz of the camp. Did observe all the objects though, with the exception of the Antlia group. I've looked at them before but for some reason just couldn't get the star hopping right on the weekend. I was blown away by M104 and M83 in Tim's 22" - who needs imaging when they look this good visually? And also observed Eta Carina in my own scope with much wider field of view than I normally would and saw it in a whole new light. And with Eric's NBP filter - I think I have to get one if these. A different look again from UHC and OIII.
Thanks again for the list.
