Any details on the exposure times used on these images?
Thanks Browndog I agree about M104 needing more data it suffers bad light polution from a relatively close industrial area to my east as well plus moon rising. What can I say !

ngc4755 - 20x15sec
ngc5139 - 30x20sec
m104 - 30x20sec

I had a pretty crappy polar alignment so exposures were short. I used track and accumulate mode in CCDOps to image them and it's a bit like DeepSkyStacker.
