- U And, W And (Mira variables)
- Z And, RZ LMi, DV UMa, R CrB, (variables)
- BL Lac (BL Lac blazer)

- NGC 4151 (Seyfert Galaxy)
- 7.7 hr session, largely operated under automated and remote control - CCD operation of -20 degC (at 61% average cooling). . - main objective was to acquire images ongoing photometric and astrometric monitoring of the selected stars, together with images of the total lunar eclipse 2007-03-03 - opportunity was taken to acquire gallery shots of selected Caldwell objects in CrB and CVn during the 'unscheduled' dark skies during total lunar eclipse - More Notes -
