Description

NGC6893 is the smallest PN I ever imaged that actually shows its true nature. I put it down not so much to its dimensions (6") but to its nature; it has no bright central stars to overwhelm the fainter outer disk. so in this rare instance you can see its donut-shaped OIII outer disk. It is also not just a one-night wonder, it is a one-hour wonder. Easiest job ever.
