This is my first viewing with snow around...So out with a nice square piece of wood as a base...

A few galaxies tonight but NGC 2868 stood out. Its just below UMA 16 and is described as considerably bright despite a sbr of 14.6.

It has a "molecular polar disc" whatever that is when its at home..:)

Anyway it was relatively easy to pick out and observe with direct vision. It was quite large as faint galaxies go and oval shape.
