Ancient Planetary Nebula - Dengel-Hartl 5

Hi folks
Discovered in 1979, this PN is located in Cepheus and is most certainly faint.
Its a bi-colour image consisting of 25 hours exposure (13 Ha, and 12 OIII).

Taken with the 17" CDK/Apogee U16M from Heaven's Mirror Obs.

Clear skies!
Martin

Well that would be one of the oddest planetaries I've seen Martin. An immaculate image as usual.

Cheers

Steve

That's working hard for an image, but worth it!

Incredible image, it must be very faint. Perfect processing again, you are really cranking them out lately Martin
