Hi Eric

You certainly have that DSI 11 humming along nicely, good shots.

That planetary, Little Gem, would be NGC 6445, According the StarAtlas Pro is Mag 13, pretty bright, pretty small, resolvable. No wonder it didn't look interesting.

Good work

JohnG

EDIT: I will have to stand corrected, there are actually 2 PN in Sgr called Little Gem, Star Atlas Pro only lists NGC 6445 by that name, the other is actually NGC 6818, near Barnards Galaxy, information from Deepsky Astronomy Software. My apologies.
