About this image

IPHASX J022045.0+631134 is a small (30 arc-second) but bright planetary nebula (PN) discovered in 2011. It is dwarfed by the massive supernova remnant (SNR) HB 3 (G132.7 + 1.3) which itself was first discovered as a radio source in 1953.
The PN is challenging to image not only because of its size, but also because of a large star that obscures the north east end of the nebula.
This is a mosaic of two panels so that more of the of the SNR can be seen.

Image captured on my dual rig in Spain.
Scopes: APM TMB LZOS 152 Refractors
