This is my quick montage of the huge but inordinately faint dwarf galaxy UGC 10822 in Draco.  Its gross mag = 11 but that's spread over an area equal to the full moon!  Hence nothing of the galaxy is recorded in my 30s exp but it's so transparent that distant gxs can be recorded through it as annotated below.
