Ngc 6888 The Crescent Nebula

Some targets just need a little more than a DSLR can deliver. I think the crescent nebula is one of them. Last year I tried this target, never published the image because I was not happy with the result.
Despite the guiding working well and subs of 5 minutes I am still not entirely happy with the amount of data collected. There is some indication of some tenuous nebulosity surrounding the nebula.
