Fantastic galaxy. The bright inner section of the spiral arms is visible at first glimse. But after a little time the fainter extensions of the arms show up as well. It is getting uniformly and rapidly brighter towards the center, but no stellar core is visible. It is a little gem in the sea of galaxies of the Virgo Cluster. NGC 4533 (at the bottom of the field) is a 14.6 mag, very elongated, edge-on galaxy in the photos. Unfortunately I didn't pay so much attention to it and only saw its central part.
