Hi Darren,
Here's my observation with the 18 inch under typical northern Arizona dark & transparent skies: Minkowski's Butterfly. This object is cataloged as PK 10+18.2 and PNG 10.8+18.0. Interestingly, Megastar indicates an orientation of northeast-to-southwest while the visible nebulosity is aligned nearly due north-south.
