Javier, Do you have a Telrad finder? This finder really makes locating deep sky objects much easier than using only a 8x50 finder. Actually I use both but more times than not the Telrad gets the object close enough so I can see it in my low power eyepiece. There are finder charts for the Messier objects that I found very useful in the Beginners forum in the post Telrad Charts Have You Seen This? then view Carol's Picks. The third website that Dave provided the link to is the same charts I've used that are found with other ones at Carol's Picks. Dean
