    Hi, after buying a pair of Celestron binos 15 ×75 and have used them a few times now.Living in Dublin suburbs and because of my particular location I've focused mostly on the E-SE sky.Have been viewing Orion and nebula, Sirius,Procyon,Plaeides (my favourite I think) and Jupiter and its moons.
    I appreciate these are probably the big hitters in this part of the sky so my question is what other things should I be looking for here.And in a wider context, when I get myself to darker skies and a full field of vision what should I be looking at then?I'm asking as a beginner in terms of what are the most popular stars/objects people tend to start with?You know, things that'll maybe impress the kids and pique their interest.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks.
