NGC 7358
30" (10/15/15 - OzSky): at 303x; fairly bright, moderately large, elongated 3:1 ~N-S, 1.2'x0.4', sharply concentrated with a very small, very bright nucleus. A collinear trio of stars passes just north of the galaxy with the closest mag 13.5 star 0.8' NE. Also a mag 13.8 star is 1.5' WSW. Located 11' SW of the brighter double system IC 5250 in a group containing several IC galaxies. IC 5247 lies 12' SE.
