Last night was the first time in ages which I’ve had my telescope out and looking at the night sky. The conditions were pretty good for Vancouver and I had my dob set up on the back deck. From the deck I have a north-south corridor to view, and can point a little east as well. Without too much trouble I had a look at:
M13 (Hercules Cluster, a nice globular cluster)

M27 (Dumbell Nebula, a planetary nebula)

and M57 (Ring Nebula, another planetary nebula)
.
I also tried to find some clusters around Cassiopeia but didn’t have much luck. Things lower on the horizon get washed out in the light polluted skies.
