This eg is found almost due E of a mag 9 * that is about 4' away. Very small diffuse looking eg with irregular edges, may be slightly elong in PA 15. Seems to have a quite LSB outer halo maybe 1.25' diameter and a small somewhat brighter small core area with a tiny stellaring at centre. Not too hard too see.

-11 & 14 are in the same ep field. -11 is the dominant member of the two and is mod faint only. Fair-size, maybe 1.5' diameter, round, poss slight elong in PA 0 in the outer halo it grows slowly to centre and there is a definite somewhat brighter core zone which in turn grows more strongly to a stellaring in the centre. There is a small Tri of *s between it and -14 to the SE only a few arc-mins.
-14 is only 30-40" diameter, round reasonable SB growing broadly and mod to the centre. S by 5' from -14 is MCG +2-25-4 that is no more than a 20" diameter of ephemeral mist.
-19 is one field NE of these three and is a quite elong eg, seems 2nd brightest of the 4. A bit brighter that -14 but has slightly lower SB. Seems to be in PA 160, fairly consistent SB long oval 1.5' x 20" indefinite edges but grows broadly and slightly to centre without zones or apparent nucleus.

Is a quite small eg, probably only 30" diameter, looks like a very distant elliptical eg in a very thinly populated star-field, just a few faint stars -- 12th - 14th none close. Grows broadly and moderately to the centre without zones or core or nucleus. Seems to be round.

Class: SAB(rs)b P.A.: 155 Inclination: 4 R.V.: +7556 Source: RC3 *
This is an extremely dim field with just a few odd faint stars in it but the eg is to the W of a 8th mag * by 1/2 a field -- 14' as a small round pretty dim splodge of pretty LSB gossamer with hardly any central brightening. Seems to be round, about 30-40" diameter and diffuse edges.

-29 is the major member here. It is about 8' N of a very long I tri of mags 10 & 12 * that points southward. Very small somewhat elongated lens shaped object in about PA 135 and with consistent SB, maybe 50" x 15" and no real central brightening -30 & -31 are 3 and 6' northward and even fainter tiny spots of most about 15" diameter. Both are very faint.

-43 is the largest and brightest of these 4 and is not far from a small faint pair -- a few arc-mins SW from them. Not too bad, fairly diffuse looking Lowish SB looking blob, 40-50" diameter looks a bit irregular in surface brightness but generally grows broadly and slightly to centre and there is a small slightly brighter spot. -46 is 5' E and is very faint elong spindle in about PA 0, very small, 20-30" long faint and of LSB.
A similar distance W of -43 is -33 which is a very, very faint tiny streak of hardly to be seen mist about 20" long in PA 0 -- only occasionally visible.
-41 is not far outside the halo of -43 to the NW as an almost stellar-sized spot of gossamer no more than 10" diameter -- if that.

This isn't too hard to see in a thin field. Immediately visible. Fairly small, probably nearly 1' diameter, round lowish SB brightening broadly and slightly to centre azonally without apparent nucleus. May have an intermittently visible stellaring in the centre Seems sound.

Astonishing seeing -- never seen detail in this thing like this before. Unfiltered at this magnification the disc of this PNe is about 15" diameter and a pale steely blue -- different from low magnification view.
Never seen it other than round before. There are two nearby stars mag 10 to the E 4' and the SE 5' and from those the nebula is elong in PA 0, more correctly, it is round but has two small, low protrusions from the disc N and S that make it look slightly oval in PA 0. The protrusions from the disc are slightly lower in SB than the rest of the disc and *occasionally* there seems to be a hint of some mottling over the disc. No Central star still. Lots of mag 15 & 15 *s in the field. Fantastic seeing.

Mag: 15.8 S.B.: --- B-V: --- Size: 0.4'x0.3'
Class: Sb P.A.: 155 Inclination: --- R.V.: --- Source: PGC *
This is a very tiny and faint eg that took a little while to pin down because of that and the blank nature of the field. Almost stellar, 10-15" diameter splodge of very LSB fog with no apparent central brightening.

This is a very small elong eg in PA 30 in a pretty barren field. There's no stars visible within 5-6' of the eg. Elong oval about 40 x 20" in PA 30 with a broad slight central brightening and a hint of a large, weakly brighter core-zone.

This is pretty immediately visible, no real difficulty to see. It is pretty small, 40 - 50" diameter, round reasonable SB and brightens broadly and slightly to centre without apparent core or nucleus or zones. There is a 12th mag * off the halo to the NW by about 2'.

This is a fairly obvious but lowish SB eg, overall brightness is okay. Seems to be elong in about PA 90 and is round basically to the S (maybe slightly E of S) from a mag 8 *. Spindle shape, 1.75 x 20" with a broad, slight brightening to the axis near centre but no real core etc.. 20' NW is IC 2969 which is just off round in PA 90 and about 50" diameter with a similar surface brightness and overall brightness.

This eg is obvious as a small maybe 40" diameter round splodge of mist with a broad moderate central brightening with a faint stellaring at the centre. With direct vision it almost appears stellar and the stellaring in the centre is of similar brightness to a 15th mag * not far to the NNE.

Of these three 006 is the most easily visible and is immediately obvious without searching. Pretty small and within a N-S snaking line of faint stars stretching from one side of the field to the other. Small, round or off round in PA 0, 30" diameter growing mod and broadly to the centre to a stellar nucleus. Now about 10 SE is MCG +0-31-7. It is a somewhat lower SB object nearly 1' diameter, round with a consistently LSB halo, diffuse edges and no core or nucleus.
Back to 006, 6' E is MCG +0-31-10 which is a very tiny spot of haze about 15" diameter, slightly brighter in the centre.

This is a small elong eg pretty much in PA 150 and is almost pointed at by a lengthened 6' long I tri of mag 11 *s to the NW. Squashed oval of quite LSB with diffuse edges and a weak brightening to the centre, no apparent core, zones or nucleus.

This is pretty much immediately visible though faint and small. The field is very blank There is a Tri + 1 of mag 13 & 14 *s to the N of the eg by a few arc-mins. Appears to be slightly elong, perhaps in PA 30 about 40" x 20" growing broadly and slightly to the centre without zones and no core/nucleus visible.
