Detecting faint structures around Planetary Nebulae (PNe) and/or galaxies offers a variety of challenges. While their apparent sizes are normally small enough to fit within a telescope's field of view, their distances reduce their brightness and requires long exposures to gather the data. Unfortunately, competition for large telescope time limits the possibility of extended observations. We proposed the use of small telescopes (<1 m) and long observation times for detecting weak emission in these objects.
