Hi all
I imaged on of the faintest PNe's Ive ever captured last night. Ha Tr6 in Pavo, total of 4 hours worth. Star Atlas pro reports its H beta magnitude as 18.25

I wonder if there are any other colour images of this object.

24x10mins ISO400. LPS filter,MPCC coma corrector, modded 350D, 10 inch f5.6 newtonian, off axis hand guided as usual.

Conditions were damp but fairly clear and cool, my electric blanket and foam dewshield worked a treat, keeping optics bone dry despite outside of tube having water almost running off it.
