I want to see Mars!

I have a 60mm refractor and I'm based in South East Melbourne. Can anyone help with trying to view Mars tonight or tomorrow night? Where do I look? I'm colorblind also.

Its the brightest object in the North East..you should be able to sight it easily with the naked eye first and then use your finder scope to train your telescope on the planet. Its risen already but be 10 pm it should be well above any houses trres around your observing location

the really bright object setting in the west is of course venus

you cant miss 'em
