JaFu 1 and Palomar 6

SPX350 F4,53, ATK-16HR, Astrodon filters.

Thought I would have a try at some of the faint Terzans/Palomars and after Dennis posted his informative eyopening Palomar 6 image with recently discovered elusive planetary nebula JaFu1 I thought it would be worth a try.

I used the Ha5nm filter and following day tried the OIII 3nm filter to see if I could pick up any sign of the planetary nebula and sure enough it appeared in the HaRGB although not in initial RGB. May be worth a go in the IR742nm next time. Palomar 6 came out well with nice concentrated structure.

I love HiRes work of Rolf/Dennis et al as it is so imaginative.

Ha-5x5m
O3-7x10m
R-8x5m
GB-5x5mins.

Thanks for looking, John.
