Description

Hartl-Dengel-Weinberger 3 (aka HDW 3, PK149.09-1, PN G149.4-09.2) is quite faint and probably therefore rather rarely imaged ancient planetary nebula. This is the wider field image that my Samyang 135 caught when piggybacking on my dual-RASA rig. 50% RASA data added centrally. The Perseus galaxy cluster indicated by all the NGC annotations down to the left is drowned in the strong red Ha signal and these galaxies are also really much too small for being imaged at 135 mm focal length.
