NGC 4565 - Needle Galaxy

Due to the edge on nature of this galaxy, it wasn't initially easy to categorise it, however it is believed to be a barred spiral galaxy, and more recent data would point to a classical bulge/bar spiral structure, not too unsimilar to our own Milky Way, however this galaxy is far more luminous than even the Andromeda galaxy.

The galaxy is thought to contain around 240 globular clusters, near 100 more than our Milky Way, and is thought to be coming out of a recent starburst era.
