IC 1805 and WeBo1 Planetary Nebula (Dan Kusz)

IC 1805 and WeBo1 Planetary Nebula

The Heart Nebula again...Imaged this year in the HOO format that I am enjoying as of late.

In processing this image I noticed, just above and slightly to the right of the main nebulosity, a strange object. It showed up mainly in the OIII channel and modestly in Ha. It has two "central" stars that appear to be inside the structure. Is this a Planetary nebula? I did research and was unable to find anything on this object. Does anyone out there have any idea? I have cropped and uploaded a closer view of the object. Any help would be great!

EDIT with new information from Daniel Erickson identifying the PN.

Taken from The Astronomical Journal, 125:260–264, 2003 January

WeBo 1 (PN G135.6+01.0), a previously unrecognized planetary nebula with a remarkable thin-ring morphology, was discovered serendipitously on Digitized Sky Survey images. The central star is found to be a late-type giant with overabundances of carbon and s-process elements. The giant is chromospherically active and photometrically variable, with a probable period of 4.7 days; this suggests that the star is spotted, and that 4.7 days is its rotation period. We propose a scenario in which one component of a binary system became an asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star with a dense stellar wind enriched in C and s-process elements; a portion of the wind was accreted by the companion, contaminating its atmosphere and spinning up its rotation. The AGB star has now become a hot subdwarf, leaving the optical companion as a freshly contaminated barium star inside an ionized planetary nebula

Hope all are well!

Description: Little more subtle on the stretch, felt original was a little too much. added more to the stars as well luminosity and colour.

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.
