Some great results there Roberto.  Especially the Croc's eye galaxy, I think is a challenge from LP skies.

Great images Roberto.  M94 has been on my list for a number of years, I hope I get around to it sometime.

Thank you All!  I was happy with M94 but my scope is not really suited for galaxies.  I was also pleased with IC405 since this is my third attempt at it with previous ones in 2014 and 2016.  NGC4088 and its companions are much smaller but have some very interesting shapes.
