M77 and friends

First clear night since I moved into my new house and have the luxury of being able to use the observatory.
I'm still waiting for the larger OTA, and until it arrives I'm doing some experimentation with the 10" f4.5 to see how deep I can get from less then 10km from the CBD. This is an LRGB of 16x5minute subs for each filter of M77, NGC 1072 and NGC 1055, plus a few < mag 16 faint fuzzies.
Link to higher res image here, but it looks like the seeing was not great.
