Thanks Johnny. I saw a sample image from some AP fellow that is looking to have subscribers to a CDK 17" in South America. One of his first images was M104 and after looking at it closely, it was on the same par as my M104. So you are right it did turn out well.

It may have been a subpar night, but you turned out a superb image.
Nice work.

>> The night of April 26-27 2019 was subpar seeing but I still managed to dig out some details and a nice image of M104 called the Sombrero Galaxy located in Virgo Constellation.It is near Spica the brightest star in Virgo. The Sombrero is about 1/3 the size of our galaxy(Milky way) and is about 30 million light years away. It has one of the largest central bulges known and possibly extents up and down for a total of 10,000 light years. Its prominent dust lane is almost face on. The light show here left 30 million years ago.
