Using an Orion UltraBlock narrowband nebula(r) filter I was able to observe this faint annular planetary nebula at 118 and 202x. NGC 6894 appeared as a dim but obvious ring at 202x. It is about 42" in size and has an extremely dim central star of magnitude 17.6, which was far beyond the capabilities of the site and telescope. There is an image of NGC 6894 in second volume of the NSOG.
