Oc Ngc 6067

Bill Christie took this image of D360 = NGC 6067.
http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/a...0&d=1149005438
Dunlop described this OC as "A pretty large cluster of small stars of mixed magnitudes, about 12’ diameter; the stars are considerably congregated towards the centre, extended south preceding and north following."

There is an interesting PN Menzel 2 = PK 329.3-02.8 near the above OC. It is mag 12.5 and 27" across.
To find it go 25' south from the OC to the orange mag 5 star kappa Nor then continue 21' in almost the same direction.
