Last night I was in Cherry Springs trying to see supernova 2012am in M65. Could not see the supernova but made this new sketch of the galaxy. 16", 21.75 mpsas by SQM-L. The sketch captures the appearance at 225x. Needless to say, the contrast is exaggerated. This galaxy is rather subtle in 16". North up, west right, approximately.
