I Tracked down m104 in my 25x100 tonight the 2.5 degree field makes it easy to see the two 3 star asterisms in Sab's post Suzy links to.
It was a nice elongated fuzzy, not large or bright but easy to pick out. I started at Saturn jumped to spica then moved to the bottom 2 stars in corvi-was a quick jump down from there..prob took me 3 mins to bag it
It was good to make out a diff shape then the usual circular smudge
