Local Group Galaxies Print E-mail

I would like to collect images of as many local group galaxies as possible. There are over 40 in the group but the majority will probably be beyond the reach of amateurs. However, many are easy - M31 is naked eye and M33 can be from a good sky. There are others that are challenging but not impossible. For starters I suggest the following objects.

Ref     R.A (h m s)     Dec. (d m s)    
M31 (NGC224) 00 42 44.4 +41 16 08
M33 (NGC598) 01 33 50.9 +30 39 37
IC10 00 20 23.6 +59 17 30
NGC6822 19 44 57.9 -14 48 11
M32 (NGC221) 00 42 41.9 +40 51 55
M110 (NGC205) 00 40 22.5 +41 41 01
NGC3109 10 03 06.7 -26 09 32
NGC185 00 38 57.7 +48 20 14
IC1613 01 04 48.4 +02 07 10
NGC147 00 33 11.6 +48 30 28
Leo I (UGC5470) 10 08 27.5 +12 18 27
Leo II (UGC6253) 11 13 29.3 +22 09 12
UGCA 444 (MCG-3-1-15)  00 01 56.9  -15 27 01
