NGC 319
30" (10/13/15 - OzSky): at 394x; moderately bright, fairly small, slightly elongated SSW-NNE, 0.6'x0.5', contains a very small brighter nucleus. A mag 15.4 star is 33" SW of center and a mag 13 star is 2.3' SSE. Forms a pair NGC 322 7.1' NNE.
24" (10/5/13): at 225x appeared faint to fairly faint, small, slightly elongated ~N-S, 20"x15". NGC 322 lies 7' NNE. Despite an elevation of only 10¡, both galaxies were easily seen.
