Great shot there Eric.
there is another PN very close by called Wray 17-31, just ESE of 2899. I reckon you would have gone very close to fitting it in. Heres a full frame view in my 10 inch 1700mm fl scope

Another beauty Eric, this one has a very interesting shape and a nice rich colour.

We'll have to call you "King of the Planetarys"

Cheers

Lovely strong colour and very interesting shape and detail Eric.

Will have to see if I can find it with the Dob :)

Nice images, Eric and Scott.

What constellation are we in? I might try to hunt them down with 20" on the weekend, and report on how they appear visually.
