The classic edge-on spiral, the Sombrero Galaxy, Messier 104, in Virgo. This object is always low in my home sky so tough to get a clean, sharp image of it, but this night, April 20, 2020, was as good as it gets for me. It looks like there is a little asteroid trail to the left of M104. I left it in.

This is a stack of 6 x 10-minute exposures with Astro-Physics 130mm apo refractor at f/6 (with the 6x7 field flattener) and Canon EOS Ra camera at ISO 800.
