A beautiful, huge edge on galaxy. Through the 25" and the 10" SCT, I could EASILY pick out the dark dust lanes in the galaxy. The galaxy took up the entire field of the Neglar eyepiece. A first time observation of this great galaxy for me. I will never forget it and can't wait to see it again. This is a must see under medium power in clear, dark skies. Blown away
