This target took a long time to find / detect (this was also my second attempt). Prolonged AV in the expected area finally gave me glimpses. The size grew a little over time as I observed it, and I get the impression that this galaxy is just so slightly oblong.

This one also took a long time to find. I had to go in for a while to let Stellarium help confirm the location. Prolonged AV allowed it to pop into view briefly a few times. Rather small and close to a uniform circle.
Both targets tonight were pretty hard. I had 4 items on my list but had ran out of endurance in the 12° temperatures in the backyard.
