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!

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