Description:
Moderately bright, highly elongated to the SSE-NNW. Surprisingly large and spectacular. Especially on its Western side I suspect a well defined central bulge. The two ends are very sharp and react well on averted vision: the galaxy clearly grows. Nice galaxy, perhaps I should try again on a night with less humidity in the atmosphere.
