Description

Another planetary from my virtual star party last August. Tiny little blue planetary. This one really looks like a tiny blue flower. The inset is a 2x scaled version to show the tinier details.

The central star can be spotted in the enlarged image. The blue color is interesting, reminiscent of some ring nebula images. I think I got the color balance close to right, but I need to look at this again from a dark sky site with no filter to verify the color.
