Sh2-188 as an animated 3D
Animations are made by creating artificial parallax to an image. Then two images are animated together by using conversion web service, Start3D. There can be some artifacts in images, due the experimental nature of this work! The volumetric models are based on some known facts and an artistic impression.
Please, let the images load for few seconds to see them animated!

Sh2-188 as an anaglyph Red/Cyan 3D
You'll need Red/Cyan Eyeglasses to be able to see this image right.
Note, if you have a Red and Blue filters, you can use them! Red goes to Left eye.

Jones 1, an extreme dim planetary Nebula, project finalized
Jones1
Natural color composition from the emission of ionized elements, R=80%Hydrogen, G=100%Oxygen and B=85%Oxygen+15%Hydrogen to compensate otherwise missing H-beta emission. This composition is very close to a visual spectrum.
PK 104-29.1, Jones1, a Planetary Nebula in constellation Pegasus.
O-III emission dominates the scene, hence the Bluish color. There is some faint H-alpha emission in a nebula and very dim "blob" of Hydrogen alpha emission just under the nebula. There was no trace of S-II emission.
North is Up and East is Left.
A very hot Central star can be seen as Blue at the center of the Nebula. (Middle one of the Three stars)

I must say, this was the most difficult target ever, due the extremely low surface brightness. I did use my "Tone Mapping" method to dig out all the information. This is one of the dimmest Planetary Nebulae.
There is very few images and information of this nebula around.
