About this image

Abell 21 is the Deep Sky Section 'Object of Interest' for February. Poor weather and a badly placed Moon left me with little opportunity to observe Abell 21 during during the month. Gusty winds were making life difficult yesterday evening, but I did manage to capture this possibly overly-colourful image of this faint (c. mag.16) planetary nebula.
