Steve's Notes

===== NGC 5674 18" (7/2/11): fairly faint to moderately bright, moderately large, irregularly round, ~1.0' diameter, gradual even concentration to a slightly brighter core, then suddenly increases a fairly bright stellar nucleus. The outline of the halo seems irregular and shifts with averted vision. In the same low power field with NGC 5679 20' ESE. 17.5" (6/8/91): fairly faint, fairly small, round, broad concentration. NGC 5679 lies 20' ESE.
