Interesting. I asked Arnie and he suggested M51 also. I think the
triplet is too wide of a target for this setup. You know, while I
always appreciate the 'wider' view of things, one of the things I
really like is seeing close-ups of the faint fuzzies. I guess that's
why I'm also considering Tony's galaxy, NGC 7331. And also possibly,
the NGC member of the Leo Triplet, I think NGC 3248. That one has some
personality and I've always thought that was the more interesting of
the 3.
Alan
