Hey Orestis

How sweet was this warm weather we've been having?!

Great observations once again. Loved your description of NGC 7009, aka the "Saturn Nebula" that's a great effort well done. Yes, I've seen the "ansae" from my place, but is very difficult (thanks light pollution) and you'll want the best possible transparency and dark skies to really get the best out of this object. You did well to spot those extensions, AND the knobs on the tips
