Description

A nice, not often imaged, planetary nebula in Cepheus. It lies close to Epsilon Cephei although this isn't the star on the left edge. Above Min 2-51 would be another very small Pn Min 2-52, but it would be a another 2 panels with my fov. At only 12" in size it's not worth the time for me, but a larger fov would show both Minkowski objects. There's a good image of these by Astrojolo on the web.
