Finding Uranus in Oct 2013

Oct 11th 2013 with a half full moon in Sagittarius/Capricon, magnitude 6 stars are still visible to the naked eye under dark skies. Outside city lights with a half full moon, without any binoculars or scope, I can make out the circlet of Pisces and see delta Pisces and see the planet Uranus (magnitude 5.7) and the star HIP2954 (Magnitude 6.5) next to it. Also with the half full moon near Sagittarius, M7 was visible in binoculars.

There is an easy way to find Uranus:
Locate Algenib in the square of Pegasus.
To it's immediate lower right is 38 Pisces. Follow down lower left 2 more stars and you find 35 Pisces.
35 Pisces is in a diamond structure with 3 other like-magnitude stars.
At the extreme left of this diamond structure is 41 Pisces.
Rotate your finderscope a little down and left and you will find 51 Pisces.
Uranus and 51Pisces are almost at the same R.A 0h 34m.. so turn your declination down about 4 deg (Pisces 51 is at DEC 7deg RA 0h 32m and Uranus currently at 3deg RA 0h 35m)

Another way:  rotate your finderscope a tad left you will see Delta Pisces with 2 stars (Pisces 62, Pisces 60) in a straight line pointing to Uranus. On the way down to the left is 96 Pisces. Uranus is 4 degrees to the lower right of 96 Pisceum.
I found that in light polluted skies, the blue is washed out.
