A Ghost in the Sky

Hey!

I send you the planetary M. 97, “A ghost in the sky”.

This planetary is faint with diffuse edge, and the “eyes” on > the limit of my telescope.
The central star is too faint for me, but in much larger scopes it > is visible.
M. 97 is often called “The owl”, but to me it looks like a > ghost. The colour was grey.
I used graphite pencil on white paper and inverted.
The observation was made outside Trondheim city, Norway.

Clear sky to all, from Per-Jonny Bremseth.
