My post processing skills are still a little basic so I'm not getting the best out of the data. Also, as I set up and tear down each night, I've been a little sloppy in camera field orientation, so I have just ringed the PN in Red and the faint fuzzy in Yellow just to identify them.

I can just make out 2 point-like concentrations in the fuzzy blob in the Raw PSD File, so I hope they make their way into the JPG.

Bed time for me now.

Hi Dennis,

Wow. Nice image. Your object certainly does look fuzzy.

I looked in the Macquarie/AAO/Strasbourg Hα Planetary Galactic
Catalog (MASH) which was the survey conducted by Quentin Parker &
David Frew et. al. a few years back and didn't get a hit, but I will
take a look again. They picked up a bucket-load of new PN and
"possible" PN over a seven year program at the beginning of this century.
I went to an interesting talk Quentin Parker gave at the time, probably at a
ASNSW meeting.

But even MASH had initially missed the one Andrew Murrell picked up
and after Andrew's finding it, David Frew did a Hα observation of it and
it got catalogued as "mu 1" :- http://simbad.u-strasbg.fr/simbad/si...bmit=submit+id

So anything is possible.
