Description:
Oval galaxy elongated to the NW-SE. Based on my map (Triatlas-B) it should be a tiny, faint object, yet to my surprise it is relatively large, and definitely easy to see. Reacts very well to increasing magnification. It appears a bit asymmetrical: its SE side is brighter and its NW side is more elongated.
