Who has viewed Abell 35 planetary?

Hi all, I tried in vane last night to image this large faint planetary on the border of Hydra and Corvus. It is over 11' in size, and magnitude 12, so very faint. I have read that a 12" scope is needed to view the brighter parts of this planetary that appear like a bow wave.

So has any of you with large diameter scopes viewed this planetary?

Thanks.
