Captured this over my neighbours garage between 2 trees. Tricky!

Lovely rendition of one of the best deep-sky objects. It really captures that ghostly, mysterious appearance.

Haven't visited the Sombrero galaxy yet but I've read its supposed to be a nice sight.

Nice sketch as always Seb.

[Kedvenc]

Another great sketch.

[Pug]

As above! Nice one.

[RikM]

Spot on that one. Well done.

[foundaplanet]

Very neat.

It's a cracker of a sketch, very nice. If only M104 was higher from our UK skies it would be far easier to observe. I have to get under the clear horizons of Salisbury Plain as there are too many houses around my garden observatory.

It's nice being in a galaxy season again isn't it?
