NGC 5613
48" (4/15/10): at 431x appeared moderately bright, fairly small, slightly elongated, ~24"x18", very small brighter core. Located 2' NNW of NGC 5614. Slightly brighter and larger than NGC 5609 situated 4.7' SW
24" (7/8/13): faint to fairly faint, small, round, 10" diameter, stellar nucleus. With averted vision the halo elongates the size increases to 15"x10". Located 2' N of NGC 5614 in a quartet, though its redshift implies NGC 5613 lies in the background at twice the distance.
17.5" (5/27/95): extremely faint, very small, round, requires averted vision to glimpse. Located 2.0' N of NGC 5614.
