  Will try and obtain deep images with the 2.0-m Faulkes Telescope South tomorrow (2017 August 28 09:00 UT).

  The Moon is waxing and approaching this object so now would be a good time.
  One difficulty may be the dense star field in that part of the sky. The image scale of the 2.0-m should help.

    Dear,

     

    Trying to image this object in the nights to come with an 1-m telescope.
