BGO also imaged NGC 4762 (with NGC 4754) for me. Galaxies in Virgo. 4762 is another one of the RASC Finest NGCs. It looks like an edge-on spiral but there are no dust lanes. Wisps are very evident along the other edges.
Luminance only, 60 seconds subexposures, 10 stacked shots. FITS Liberator, GIMP. North is up; east is left.
LEDA 1391072 is a tiny round fuzzy to the west.
LEDA 1389947 is visible to the east. There seem to be two small round objects here.

Imaged again on 23 Mar '20 with a better result.
