PNe + blackhole galaxy etc

My earlier thread "planetaries last night" got sort of hijacked by video folk and blocked within 48hrs before I could add the remaining shots so here goes now!

NGC 6058 mag 13 PNe in Her west of M13 - data on images

1023 gx in Per @ ~28MLY* in just 20s exp that goes down to mag 17 and fainter. The gx has a >40 solar mass blackhole [bH] and whilst it's generally agreed most gx have central BH this one is large!  There's a website for BH galaxies to Google.

NGC 6675 gx north of Vega eg my start-up alignment star.  When I initalised the scope a faint comet-like object appeared - surely I couldn't get that lucky but quick atlas scan revealed a faint mag 13 gx @ >100MLY range.  Wikisky showed a nice near face-on spiral and it form is just about visible in my 60s exp. 

* distance/light time to object = radial velocity/lightspeed = ~z value - converted to distance in MLY via Ned Wright's Cosmo Calc page.

I'll poke around to see if there's more DSO goodies from sessions.

Some very interesting faint objects there, thanks for sharing.
