I'd think with more time you should be able to go a lot deeper. There's
a lot more to that guy that my 6" f/4 picked up.
Color looks good.

Correct domain name is arvig and it is net not com. Prefix is correct.
Third character is a zero rather than a capital "Oh".

Nice image. Do you have more frames to add?
Comparing this with your NGC 2537 picture either M63 is fainter or
conditions were better for NGC 2537.

Thanks Stefan! No more frames for now, I'm switching mounts today and
forecast to have clear skies tonight.
