I woke at about 2.30am, and rather than keep the wife awake as well, I went outside for a look. Checked out Carina and Vela and then found 5189. It looked very unusual in the 22mm, so I put in the 12mm with the UHC, what a difference. It really does look like a barred spiral galaxy. A beauty. There are apparently 2 other PN's nearby, 5315 and IC4191. These are pretty small by comparison.
