Two galaxies here. The one to the south is a little more visible. Detection of both almost requires AV. A tiny speck of a core can be seen in both.

• Target: NGC 4244, Silver Needle
• Const: Canes Venatici
• RaDec: 12h17m +37.48
• Scope: AT102ED
• Setting: 55x, AV

Edge on and very faint. No visible core. AV is required for detection. Seems to have a larger length than many galaxies I've seen.

• Const: Canes Venatici
• RaDec: 12h15m +36.19

Appears to be more face on. AV gives glimpses of a bright core.
