21/09/14
A difficult to locate 9th Mag Galaxy due to it sitting in a relatively sparse starfield but neat once located
Well defined oval blob but no sign of Mags 14 to 16 attendant galaxies known as the 'Deer Lick Group'

A faint but distinct Spiral Galaxy with a hint of size even though it is just a elongated smear in 12mm
However the Moon is just rising at 22:59 so the sky is starting to wash out
