Re: NGC 5907 Splinter in the Dragon

Ferenc,

Thanks, I agree with you about NGC 4244, it looks a little fainter than n 5907 although it is closer to us.
Most observers would not bother looking for galaxies under my sky conditions. No hint of the milky way is ever visible from my back yard. It is usually worth the effort to try for any deep sky object under less than ideal conditions. Sometimes a pleasant surprise occurs.
