Tonight I examined the 2 bright Planetary Nebulaes in Cygnus. With the 115mm Vixen, I easliy found NGC 6826 with a 25mmm EP in the same field as the double star 16 Cygnus (which is like a paler, wider version of the much more famous double, 61 Cygnus.)

NGC 7027 was a little more tricky and I swaped to a 24mm Panoptic to detect it more easily. With a 11mm Nagler, this planetary showed a much deeper blue colour, and also was littler brighter than NGC 6826.
