NGC 2841 (Jan. 2020)

NGC 2841 is found in Ursa Major, mostly down the bear's front leg.  Apparently this galaxy, about 46 million light years distant, is 150,000 light years across, half again larger than our own galaxy.

This image is 34x360" with the 203mm f/4.9 Synta-ONTC Newtonian telescope and the SXVF-H9 camera.
