Ngc6563

Off the beaten track, this small planetary nebula is located in Sagittarius. It has a couple of interesting lobes which I suppose were part of the first ejection of material as the star entered its planetary phase.

I also note there is a small planetary at the bottom of the image (small blue blob), not on any catalogue I have. Perhaps another possible discovery .
