Otherwise mag 6-6.5. I'll be very interested to see how you go - you have young eyes and very good observing skills so I think you'll do well. Paul, some of them are very faint - I am always amazed at what Sab and Les are able to pick out with some of the fainter galaxies.

I'm glad it worked out for you .thanks for the comments.

regards Orestis
