Hi all
While going through these lists pf Planetaries http://www.blackskies.com/intro.html#Files
I came across 2 that would fit in one frame. I couldnt wait for the moon to go, so I tried for them now despite the moon. I used the UHCS filter to get this http://www.users.on.net/~josiah/temp/He2-114_filteredsmall.jpg
He2-214 is on the right, while bigger but lower surface brightness He2-116 is on the left. (1x15 min and 1 x 10 min ISO 400 pic stacked) Just outside this frame is another Pn, ESO 135-04. If I take a pic of it, it will overlap with this pic, so I will be able to put them together in a mosaic with THREE readily visible PNs in it :)
I impatiently await the moon to go so I can do that.

PS, gee I love the deep southern sky with all these obscure but catchable Planetaries.

Thnaks.
I just realised I made a typo, the Pn on the right is He 2-114 NOT He 2-214. Sorry about that folks.
