NGC 6781 is a fine Planetary in Aquila. It is large at 109 arc seconds. It
is within the grasp of small scopes. This object responds well to a UHC filter,
increasing the annularity. The central star was not visible on the
night I made the sketch due to poor seeing conditions. The sketch was made
at the eyepiece of the the 20" F4.5 at 326X. Location: Mesquite Springs
