Ngc6337

Hi all, here is one from last night. I was on a bit of a planetary nebula hunt hunt but conditions were probably not the best but as I haven't had a chance for over a week to get out the dew and jetstream were not going to stop me.

This is PN NGC6337 mag 12.3 in Scorpio.
It is described by Dreyer as a remarkable but extremeley faint object amongst stars.

This image was a combination of 50 images in Ha @ 21.2 seconds each
while battling some heavy dew on the corrector.

Cheers
