Very nice dark lane detail Brian!! Thats my very favorite edge on, in a very dark sky like at TSP visually that galaxy in a large dob looks just like the picture you took, almost enough to make you fall off your ladder ;>)

The Needle is one of my favorite Galaxies. I looked at it last Saturday night and it is soo big and elongated!
