We present photometry of the brightest stars in six nearby spiral and irregular galaxies with corrected radial velocities from 340 to 460 km s-1. Three of them are resolved into stars for the first time. Based on luminosity of the brightest blue stars we estimate the following distances to the galaxies: 5.0 Mpc for NGC 784, 9.2 Mpc for NGC 2683, 8.9 Mpc for NGC 2903, 4.1 Mpc for NGC 5204, 6.8 Mpc for NGC 5474, and 8.7 Mpc for NGC 5585.
