Shapley 2

This is nothing to write home about but I thought I would finish off the Shapley catalog of planetary nebulae (there's only three of them). Shapley 2 is the smallest (officially 24" although there are some faint blobs and suspicion of a halo further out) and probably should be known as IC 4642. Seeing conditions weren't the best for this shot:

For the record, this is my version of Shapley 1 (taken a few years ago):

And this is the recently posted Shapley 3:
