NGC 6742
Constellation Draco

A faint circular blue disc of diameter about 33
arcseconds. There is a star on one side of
the disc but this is probably foreground. Otherwise no central star is
visible and
the disc is without features. Quite difficult to capture. This image taken
with the "galaxy" setting.
Noise reduction in Neat Image and some histogram and gamma adjustment.
Cat magnitude is
15.
