Greetings All,
The new year has been very busy for me in areas not astronomical (work has been particularly demanding), so its been about two weeks since a post. I found some time for processing on M77 data. Image and exposure / processing details are at:

There is a faint outer disk on M77 - I think I got just a hint of it.
C8 at f/8.0
Artemis285 LRGB filters
G11/Gemini
Guiding - Megrez II 80 mm at 1350 FL, DSI Pro, K3CCDTools
An earlier image from 2003 is here:
