Maybe you'd see what you can do on the California Nebula.

I also hear that around the Blinking Planetary there are some nice little
galaxies, and of course the nice white double star.

I would like to see a good shot of NGC 4236 up in Draco. For that matter,
even the Draco Dwarf would be nice.

How about the two little globulars that Gottlieb mentioned on TAC before
(I think they were DJ globulars, or something like that. There is also a
small glob very near B92, which might make a neat shot.... the nice open
cluster on the edge of the dark nebula, potentially with a dim globular in
there too (I do not know how far the glob is from B92 though.... maybe
Steve will jump in on this).
