I haven't answered the call as I don't have a list as such. I only have a few I've seen and aim to chase down.

One of these is the giant galaxy M33. Twice the diameter of the full moon, it requires a rich field scope to make out the arm structure. I felt like a kid in a lolly shop when I saw its arms. Beautiful. Not sure if it is a good proposition for the lower latitudes of Oz.

Andrew has listed some real beauties.
