This is pretty bright galaxy in Perseus. I used 80x TS WA eyepiece with real FOV around 0.85. Galaxy appeared with small round center and larger, fainter halo stretching about 2' from both sides of core.

Very bright galaxy that is presented at a slight angle to Earth. NGC1023 has a fairly bright diffuse core. Must be visible in much smaller instruments. Look for the more difficult NGC1003 nearby.
