The ring shape and darker centre were clear despite the risen Moon; the central star was possibly glimpsed at 213× but was recorded as not seen.
M71 appeared as a faint globular cluster with a relatively open structure in a very rich Milky Way star field.
M27 was clearly visible without a filter; the Lumicon Oxygen III filter markedly increased contrast and made the dumbbell shape much more prominent.
