NGC6712 & IC1295

Had this image ( IC 1295) down as a possible target but because of it's size I felt that it really needs a larger telescope to do it justice.
With the C11 requiring perfect seeing conditions and having not many clear nights I decided that I would give the MN190 a try.
Having the globular cluster in the frame helped with the smaller focal length.

NGC 6712 is a Globular Cluster in the Scutum Constellation. NGC 6712 is situated close to the celestial equator. It lies at a distance of 22,500 light-years with a visible brightness of 8.1 mag.

IC 1295 is a planetary nebula in the constellation Scutum. It was discovered in 1867 by Truman Safford. It lies roughly 4,700 light-years away. The central star of the planetary nebula has a spectral type of hgO.
IC 1295 consists of multiple shells, gaseous layers which once were the star’s atmosphere. This ghostly green bubble is surrounding the dim and dying star which is illuminating the nebula and making it glow. The color depends on the make up of gas. Green comes from ionized oxygen particles.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
