Menzel 1 (MZ1) planetary nebula

[tornado33]

Here is MZ1.
Its a reasonably bright planetary, yet oddly isnt on the NGC catalogue. Its on the boundries of Norma, Circinus and Triangulum Australae. 5x5 mins iso 800, UHCS filter, 10 inch F5.6. Ive attached a full frame shot, and a full resolution crop close up. Modded 350D camera.

Thanks Scott. Seeing all these DSOs you have captured is cirtainly wetting my appetite. Hope to start myself in a couple of weeks when I get some adapters to attach gear to telescope.
