Condition: G6

Target: RY Cygni
Const: Cygnus
RaDec: 20h10m +35°56

Could almost miss it if I wasn't looking for it. Orange with hints of red.
Target: U Cygni
Const: Cygnus

Faint, but deep red.

Orange, NW of Deneb. Took a while to find.
Target: V Cygni
Const: Cygnus
RaDec: 20h41m +48°08
Scope: AT102ED
Setting: 55x, AV
So faint. I had a hard time finding it. AV helped keep it in view, otherwise it would pop in and out of view. Very deep red.
Target: NGC 6939
Const: Cephus
RaDec: 20h31m +60°39
Scope: AT102ED
Setting: 55x
Faint, hard to resolve individual stars. Brighter in the center. Zooming in to 100x didn't help much.
Target: NGC 869
Const: Perseus
RaDec: 02h18m +57°08
Scope: AT102ED
Setting: 55x
Target: NGC 884
Const: Perseus
RaDec: 02h22m +57°08
Scope: AT102ED
Setting: 55x
I didn't want to go in for the night, as it was too peaceful and beautiful. My eyes found a bright patch SW of Cassiopeia and I turned the scope to it. Two beautiful clusters right next to one another. Turns out it was the Perseus Double Cluster, I'll have to add this to my list of favorites.
Target: Jupiter
Setting: 55x
Could see two of the cloud bands and four of the moons.
