Here's a photo of a planetary and globular fairly close to one another 
(visually) in Sagittarius.  The field of view of this image is approximately 
1/2 degree by 1/3 of a degree.  The globular is reddened and darkened 
considerably by gas and dust between us and it in the sagittarius star cloud.  
It's interesting to get these two types of objects in the same field of view.

Thanks for looking,
