hey erick,

I posted an ob. report with findings. Only found one Planetary nebula during the night.
NGC 3195 at Mag 11! OIII filter made this one stand out very well.I was able to shift the object out of view then bring back in to view, and clearly make it out again without too much effort.
Was quite impressed compared to un-filtered view where I could just make it out.
NPB was clearer, but didnt bring out a rich, saturated color as the OIII did.

Hard to explain sorta.
