LDN674 and NGC6781 off the beaten track.

Capture and pre-processing, Paul Kummer. My post processing. RASA 8, NEQ6, ASI2600MC.

The little planetary, just 1.8 x 1.5 arcmins, was dscovered by William Herschel and was created by a roughly 2.5 solar mass star.

The dark nebula is LDN674. This a crop from a wider field in Aquila. Wouldn't it be nice to see a time lapse of PNs popping into view and fading across this field...

Yes, you do!  I hadn't noticed them and will look into them - or crop a bit smaller. 

Thanks,
